What's Inside:
Supply chain leaders can often feel like they’ve been relegated to supporting roles, asked to devise a supply chain strategy that may be—to not fault of their own—out of synch with the rest of their organization. If you’re feeling frustrated or unable to break through silos or align various departments and leaders to reap the benefits of supply chain synchronization, you’re not alone.
Because end to end supply chain synchronization is hard. But, it’s not impossible. In fact, benchmark supply chain organizations are driving significant value by ensuring that all critical supply chain elements are synchronized to core business drivers with 100% commitment and alignment among leadership. Leading companies maintain their competitive advantage by synching the Three Ps (physical assets, business processes, and people systems) with their core business drivers.
In this white paper, you’ll find definitions, tools, research, and questions that to ask for determining if your business is ready for supply chain synchronization. The authors interviewed 13 leading companies across seven industries to examine how exactly benchmark companies use end to end supply chain synchronization to their advantage.
