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

Unbreakable: Unlocking Resilience in the Face of Disruptions

The past two years have served as stark reminders that supply chain disruptions are no longer rare occurrences but rather a new standard. In this evolving landscape, organizations that proactively address and mitigate the impact of such disruptions are the ones that truly embody resilience and sustainability. When it comes to successful digital transformation, several essential components are imperative for building a resilient and sustainable supply chain. These include flexibility, agility, and visibility—qualities that organizations of all sizes must possess. However, another crucial aspect should not be overlooked: the ability to effectively handle and manage exceptions within the operational processes. This webinar will show how to manage exceptions in supply chain to minimize the impacts to the OEM in terms of costs, Co2,… Key Takeaways: – Learn from industry leaders in the supply chain & manufacturing space – Learn how ServiceNow is helping to organizations with their challenges – Learn how solve today’s supply chain problems with new solutions – Take action to solve your supply chain disruptions

Taking Stock of AI Technology for Inventory Management

Manufacturers understand the importance of precise data management to assure that sufficient materials are available in order to avoid costly production downtime. Still, many continue to rely on an outdated and error-prone patchwork of spreadsheets and manual data inputs, often leading to supply shortfalls, mislabeled products and overstocking of products that are no longer needed. This webinar will demonstrate how artificial intelligence (AI) replaces disconnected data silos with a digitized network footprint of all goods, services and logistics throughout the supply chain so that every decision is visible across the entire organization. AI’s machine learning capabilities remove materials guesswork by continually updating and interpreting market and customer trends to drive highly accurate predictive inventory analyses for indirect MRO, direct goods and even finished products. The webinar will also explain how complete digitization of data improves operational efficiency by harmonizing real-time, continually updated data across all departments and users, streamlining inventory management for speedy access to individual product stocks and available quantities.
