Driving Bottom-Line Results Through Effective Supply Chain Management
Supply chain management (SCM) has become increasingly complex in the 21st century as the result of the rapidly increasing globalization of business. Globalization is evidenced by such challenges of components getting imported from China to the USA and goods manufactured in the USA are being supplied to markets across the Middle East. Supply chain operations must now cover global procurement functions, worldwide transportation, manufacturing at multiple points across the globe, and a multitude of distribution center locations in every corner of the world.
Managing complex global supply chains requires professional procurement and transportation coupled with sophisticated warehousing equipped with RFID and modern high-speed equipment that ensures cost-effective, safe, and secure supply chains to meet customer requirements. Research has shown that companies that have mastered the complexities of global supply chain management deliver more value to their stakeholders, including shareholders, customers, suppliers/partners, and employees.
The CSCMP Dubai 2008 Conference, Driving Bottom-Line Results Through Effective Supply Chain Management, will provide supply chain professionals the opportunity to acquire proven approaches for dealing with global supply chain complexities such as:
Procurement from across the globe using the strategic partners
Warehousing within manufacturing and at the distribution points
Transportation from the suppliers and finished goods to the customers across the globe
Usage of innovation and technology to revolutionize and maximize the effectiveness of the supply chain
Usage of Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) within a supply chain strategy
Ensuring legal compliance in procurement, manufacturing, and distribution as a part of the global supply chain
Aligning supply chain strategy to overall business strategy
Performance management and global benchmarking
Supply chain perspectives across countries/continents and across the range of diverse industries
This global conference in Dubai will aim to provide an opportunity for supply chain professionals from around the world to meet, learn, and share global best practices related to the challenges stated above.
