Overview

Supply chain management enables to match the supply side and the demand side of your business model. The demand pattern is actually volatile, and this is a challenge in predicting the demand. Commercial activities, introduction of new products, uncertainty and volatility make the demand forecasting a complicated exercise. The supply pattern related to the sourcing of raw materials, parts and the production in-house is as well volatile. Nevertheless, connecting the supply and the demand is a must. This course focuses on value and performance creation, and addresses the 3 complementary levels of any supply chain model: strategic design, tactical monitoring and operational excellence.

Program Objectives

• Use supply chain management as a business value creation leverage (customers satisfaction, cost, cash, ROCE, sustainability);
• Capture the drivers of designing a supply chain model including geopolitical context;
• Learn how to design a supply chain model (value equation and performance of SC operating model);
• Be able to implement a S&OP (Sales & Operations Planning) and S&OE (Sales and Operations Execution).

Who should attend

• Leaders who have the vision to use SCM to monitor their business.
• SC Managers who want to update their knowledge in SCM.
• SC Managers who want to understand how to convince CXOs to use SCM as a business leverage
