WEBINAR: Building the New Manufacturing Workforce

As strategic forces push manufacturing back to America, one obstacle threatens progress: finding the right people with the right skills. Before new factories can produce anything, they must be built—requiring a new generation of skilled tradespeople such as electricians, welders, and technicians. And once these modern facilities are operational, companies report an unexpected challenge: the biggest talent gaps aren’t just technical, but also in core soft skills like leadership, critical thinking, and communication.

Join Supply Chain Now hosts Scott Luton and Allison Giddens as they welcome Alan Amling and Darrell Edwards from the University of Tennessee–Knoxville to explore a practical approach to developing a comprehensive workforce from the ground up. Learn what it truly takes to build, staff, and sustain the next generation of American manufacturing.

Visibilidad Estratégica en Pharma: control, cumplimiento en entornos de alto riesgo

En Latinoamérica, la cadena de suministro farmacéutica no opera en condiciones ideales. Opera en entornos de variabilidad térmica extrema, infraestructura desigual, tránsitos prolongados, exposición a robo de carga y presión regulatoria constante. Y aun así, muchas organizaciones siguen tomando decisiones críticas con información tardía. Cuando una desviación se detecta al arribo, el problema ya ocurrió. Cuando un incidente de seguridad se confirma horas después, la trazabilidad ya se comprometió. Cuando la evidencia para auditoría se construye manualmente, el riesgo regulatorio ya está latente. En Pharma, la falta de visibilidad en tiempo real no es una limitación tecnológica: es una vulnerabilidad operativa.
