WEBINAR: Why Choose Between Reducing Risk or Optimizing Costs?

As supply chain chaos continues, one of the most difficult challenges for suppliers & manufacturers is identifying strategic sourcing opportunities and across multiple facilities. In addition, organizations have relied on excess inventory as an insurance policy at the expense of opportunities to balance working capital. What if you no longer had to choose between reducing risk and optimizing costs?

Join us and learn how Verusen’s Trusted Network capabilities bridge the gap between procurement and operations initiatives and builds trust that your supply will meet your demand for the next generation of materials intelligence.

Procurement and operations leaders need increased visibility into their data across their network, and to be able to trust their data is correct in real-time. That means changing how they approach their own systems and rethinking what an optimized and future-proof supply network is.

Achieving Excellence in External Supply Chain Planning and Synchronization

As fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) companies and their external supply chain partners continue to operate in a competitive, ever-shifting market, it is becoming more important than ever for them to drive two-way visibility and high-fidelity collaboration across their complex, multi-tier networks. To this end, it has become mission-critical for consumer brands and manufacturers to leverage modern supply chain planning technologies and multi-enterprise collaboration platforms in order to drive performance and responsiveness across their networks. This webinar will highlight how leading technologies in the realm of supply chain planning (OMP) and multi-enterprise collaboration (Nulogy) can deliver value for fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) enterprises and their networks of external supply chain partners such as contract packagers and contract manufacturers. By leveraging these two complementary categories of supply chain technology, FMCG enterprises can take advantage of true cross-enterprise visibility for their own value stream analysts and external suppliers alike.
