For supply chain executives who want to forge formidable cross-functional, cross-firm partnerships for competitive advantage.
There is a growing recognition that companies no longer compete as individual entities but rather as part of a wider supply chain. The strength of these networks is determined in a large part by the quality of the relationships that connect partners across the supply chain and by the competitiveness of the business processes that underpin them.
In this ground-breaking programme – led by Professor Martin Christopher from Cranfield and Professor Doug Lambert from Ohio State University – the latest thinking and best practice from both sides of the Atlantic is presented in a highly interactive format.
You will gain:
• A proven assessment tool that will point you towards the main opportunities for increasing your supply chain's performance
• Access to a step-by-step process that best-in-class companies are using to achieve supply chain excellence
• Practical ideas on how to use the process to transform our own supply chain
• Detailed instructions on how to use the Partnership Model to reap the full benefits of collaborating with the right customers and suppliers, and to increase the involvement of other key functions within your firm
• A measurement framework to show how supply chain performance ties to your firm's overall financial results as you implement the processes covered in the programme.
