WEBINAR: Setting the Standard for Supply Chain Security

The world is becoming more software-driven and while it’s helping accelerate innovation, it’s also increasing risk. Service providers, equipment manufacturers and the various suppliers in the information communications technology (ICT) industry are seeing a sharp rise in breaches and attacks through the infiltration of downstream suppliers of software as well as hardware, and professional services. However, a new process-based standard, SCS 9001, is in development by the members of TIA with the goal of helping businesses lock these attackers out. Due for release later in 2021, this new process-based standard is poised help companies and better protect their internal operations and identify verified trusted suppliers (and their suppliers’ suppliers) for network solutions. By certifying their internal operations and verifying trusted suppliers and products and services, life will soon be much harder and success far more expensive for the suspected nation-states and crime syndicates behind these devastating attacks. In addition, the standard will include a collection of security performance measurements for aggregation of anonymous benchmark results to help drive continual industry improvement.

Join us as we discuss why this new industry standard is especially critical for new 5G and IoT networks that are aiming to connect everything from our coffee makers to our cars.

Speakers:
Ken Koffman, TIA
Dave Sanicola, The DESARA Group
Jim McConnell, Verizon
Carlos Solari, SecureG

Moderated by: Kevin L. Jackson, SVP of Total Network Service and host of Digital Transformers on Supply Chain Now

Bridging the Gap

Our profession has a tendency to disconnect discussions about how to create high performing supply chains from how to create high performing supply chain employees and teams. We see this in both business and academia. In business, HR is often seen as more administrative than strategic, and supply chain and HR metrics and strategy are often not aligned. It’s a similar situation in academia, with even the great Michael Porter viewing HR as an administrative role. In this webinar, as part of our webinar series, “The Bridge,” we’ll explore the reasons behind the disconnect and how to bridge the gap between supply chains and the people who run them.

Transforming Supply Chains to Make a Positive Impact on the World Around Us

The importance of supply chain has never been higher and senior leaders are realizing how critical supply chain performance is to their company success. Accordingly, decisions to invest in supply chain resiliency and agility are gaining visibility across c-suites and boards of directors. With that visibility comes the opportunity to break from forcing new ways of thinking into existing supply chain models and truly drive digital transformation. Global confectionery, food, and pet care products and services leader Mars knows this firsthand as its recent investments are addressing both the need for end-to-end supply chain transformation and making a positive impact on the world around us. To do so, Mars has partnered with Kinaxis for their specialized supply chain capabilities and simulation to gain agility and transparency in its supply chain. Join Will Beery, VP Global Transformations, Mars Digital Technologies, and Anne Robinson, Chief Strategy Officer at Kinaxis, along with hosts Scott Luton and Greg White with Supply Chain Now, in this wide-ranging discussion covering the need to balance vision and execution as supply chains transform, innovate and evolve in ways that make a positive impact on the world.
