August PDM

What's the Value of Supply Chain?
 A Panel Discussion featuring Executives from
Eli Lilly, Roche, and Rolls Royce 

 

The recent economic downtown, dubbed by many as the "Great Recession" and arguably the worst economic period since the Great Depression, has many companies reevaluating their processes and looking at ways to cut costs and strengthen core competencies.  Now more than ever, the management of supply chain functions is vital in order for companies to remain profitable, sustainable, and relevant.

 

The Central Indiana Chapter of APICS is pleased to welcome three fantastic panelists for our August Professional Development Meeting:

Iain Richardson, Senior Director of Global Supply Chain and Logistics - Eli Lilly and Co.

Dr. Robert Pinder, Director, Global Qualification and Risk Management - Roche Diagnostics

Allan Swan, Vice President of Supply Chain Planning & Control - Rolls Royce North America

 

The focus of the panel discussion is to uncover unique issues facing each Supply Chain leader. Issues may range from implementation of Lean manufacturing, reduction of costs associated with the Supply Chain and distribution, improvement of the basic processes in Supply Chain (i.e. MRPII, S&OP, forecasting, make to stock, make to order and order to cash), security of the Supply Chain, identifying, attracting and maintaining talented personnel, Education of the future Supply Chain professionals and other topics.
