TOPIC: Tying Together SCM, Lean and Six Sigma

Is your company prepared for ever-shorter product life cycles, even faster global communications, and hyper-demanding customer expectations? Integrating the powerful tools of supply chain management (SCM) with Lean principles and Six Sigma quality analysis will certainly give you a head start! During this interactive evening together, we'll explore intercompany examples of collaboration at the beginning, intermediate, and advanced levels of SCM and the profit opportunities possible. All channel partners can gain financially from SCM collaboration using these management tools. Join us on May 8 to learn how to leverage all three initiatives to improve your own organization's performance.
