How can a traditional, retail-first brand learn to think like a disruptor? You’ve probably seen quip’s billboards, but you haven’t heard the story of how this dominant direct-to-consumer oral healthcare brand successfully launched into thousands of retail stores like Target and Walmart. They risked losing the direct connection to consumers and the supply chain visibility they had relied on — but succeeded because of a data-driven approach powered by Alloy. Join Imran Patel, VP of Business Development & Partnerships at quip, and hosts Scott Luton and Greg White of Supply Chain Now to learn: – How quip scaled up into big box retail while retaining its DTC roots – Strategies that retail-first brands can take from quip’s omnichannel evolution – How quip’s data-driven DNA and nimble org structure helped maintain transparency collaboration and alignment between marketing, sales and supply chain team

Recent disruptions have confirmed that modern supply chains must be built on a more resilient foundation. Not just to help manage risk, but to be better positioned to deal with and even gain advantage from disruptions. Along these lines, the notion of agility is also gaining ground in order to quickly adjust supply chain tactics. The question is: can our supply chains be both at the same time? Join this in-depth discussion as we explore the importance of building robust and responsive supply chains to act as a competitive advantage in 2022 and beyond. In this session, you will learn about: – How organizations need to think beyond the current paradigms of supply chain planning and decisioning – Balancing the need for cost optimization with agility and resiliency – The role of continuous supply chain design as a means to be both agile and resilient – Technology implications to support a continuous design approach Featured Panelists: Lora Cecere, Founder, Supply Chain Insights Madhav Durbha, VP of Supply Chain Strategy, Coupa Scott W Luton, Founder, CEO & Host of Supply Chain Now
