@ Supply Chain Management

Kate Marston sent me an email about an event that she’s doing some research about/helping organize. I think that the event would be a good one to attend for SCM professionals. From the SCRM 2008 website:

The Supply Chain Risk Management Summit 2008 (SCRM 2008) is the conference and networking event that will highlight once again the key issues in supply chain risk management and offer the latest strategies for maximising supply chain excellence and minimising vulnerability and exposure to risk.

The topics include:

• Identifying and recognising risk as a key business opportunity in the supply chain
• The weakened economy: driving your supply chain to remain competitive in the credit crunch
• China’s relationship with the rest of the world
• Maximising end-to-end visibility to eliminate risk in the supply chain
• Supplier Relationship Management: auditing supplier performance to measure up to your standards
• Speeding up crisis response time: dealing with supply chain disruption
