WEBINAR: From Numbers to Strategy: How Finance Drives Data-Driven Supply Chains
Businesses are collecting mountainous amounts of data, but few are using that data to make transformative change. Multiple departments, systems, and processes, often working in siloes with varying tasks, responsibilities, conflicts of interest, create a patchwork of data points. This makes it difficult for finance teams to access and analyze information that gives them both the ‘big picture’ and granular detail. With restricted visibility, effective decision-making across the supply chain becomes a challenge.
It’s time for finance to take a strategic standpoint, to create a more efficient, resilient, and cost-effective supply chain.
Join this session while we cover topics such as :
- The challenges and risks with financial data
- Why data is your single source of truth
- The strategic role of finance in the supply chain
- How to establish a data-driven supply chain

2026 Procurement Priorities: What’s Changing (and What You Need to Do First)
Procurement teams already shoulder immense pressure to deliver margin, resilience, and stronger supplier partnerships — and 2026 is only going to heighten those expectations. Fortunately, teams already have a powerful, often under-looked resource at their disposal: rebates. In this webinar, Supply Chain Now hosts Scott Luton and Marty Parker welcome rebate and procurement experts Mark Gilham from Enable and Keith Wright from K. Wright Consultancy to help you understand how rebates, incentive programs, and joint business planning can create alignment, unlock hidden value, and make your supplier relationships far more strategic. They will reveal what most procurement teams don’t know about rebates, the full spectrum of incentive programs available, and how these programs can transform suppliers and buyers into a unified go-to-market force. Join us to learn how organizations are leveraging AI to overcome traditional rebate management barriers, empowering suppliers to offer richer incentives — and giving procurement unprecedented visibility to ensure no money is left on the table.
