The ability to rapidly respond to disruptive events in a sustainable manner is a critical capability for most enterprises. The key is to minimize the impact on cost and quality. How can supply chain leaders operationalize supply chain resilience to create value in the supply chain? The answer: They must have total visibility into inventory, order management, pricing, forecasting and more. A buy-sell solution — a multiparty platform for customers, suppliers, LSPs and trading partners — is a fresh approach that supports convergence while minimizing risk, disruptions and shortages. This tactic improves the balance sheet without sacrificing service levels. In this webinar — How A Buy-Sell Solution Can Operationalize Supply Chain Resilience To Create Value — GEP experts Alex Zhwill outline what you need and how you can benefit from this innovative buy-sell business process. On the Agenda: · Capabilities such as forecast collaboration and inventory management ensure the optimization of supply chains while controlling costs · Real-time collaboration with embedded context yields greater accuracy and productivity — which can’t happen without improved internal and external stakeholder experiences · Optimizing inventory and minimizing CapEx investments enable enterprises to be more nimble in pursuing market opportunities and improving resiliency

Disruptions have forced manufacturers to pivot from Just in Time to “just in case.” Manufacturers work closely with partners to better understand threats and opportunities and plan for the worst. But staying close to a larger and more diversified supply base adds complexity and risk. Manufacturers are left building up safety stock or expediting material, crushing profits. To drive transformation that delivers ROI, manufacturers need to be able to connect data across their technology and process silos, analyze that data to develop insights, and then drive action from those insights. Many manufacturers invest heavily in collecting and analyzing but miss the action step. The companies leading the digital manufacturing revolution are tuned into the right data and use it to drive their ongoing operations.   Check out this webinar with our friends from ServiceNow to learn: · Why supply chain innovation could become the biggest competitive differentiator between success and failure in the future · Managing supply chain exceptions in the time of disruption · How to manage large complex supplier logistics and customer ecosystems
