Outside M&A and product innovation, the only vehicle to achieve competitive advantage in a recession is supply chain excellence. To move into a leadership position and trigger sustained market performance when recovery comes, companies must ensure they have best-in-class alignment of their supply chain, marketing and product strategies. In this context we consider:
- How better to align your product and marketing strategies with your supply chain
- The current economic climate. What options do companies have? Why do some companies thrive in this period?
- Demand driven supply chain strategy. What is it? How is it different? What are its benefits?
- Getting started. How to begin the transformation to a demand driven strategy
- Enabling the process. Implications for organisational design, performance measurement and information systems
