1. Have you considered e-sourcing via reverse auction?
Is your management continuously searching for ways and
means to improve efficiency using technology? Are you too familiar with
the two common roadblocks that often accompany new technology: namely,
time and cost of implementation?
Properly managed reverse auction to the rescue: ALC has partnered with
Buyweb to offer web-enabled eSourcing on Demand. Purchasing managers
can apply eRFI, eRFP, eRFQ, and reverse eAuction technologies to reduce
time and cost, and improve strategic sourcing performance. Access
more information or register for an e-Auction Simulation Webinar.
2. Would your supply chain appreciate a Leaner, more
innovative you?
Here's one opportunity:
If your responsibility involves innovating the supply chain, and you
are a senior executive in a manufacturing company, I might have a complimentary
pass to a stellar executive roundtable sponsored by CATA, Sheridan
College, and the Richard Ivey School of Business, among others. Email
me RIGHT AWAY for your invitation, providing name, position, company,
and location. This prestigious event is on February 15, and seats are
filling up very quickly.
Here’s a second opportunity:
Lean Supply Chain Management Certification
ALC, through a partnership with Leading Edge, now offers you the International
Lean Supply Chain Management Certification program. These training courses
have been developed in conjunction with International Universities, Lean
Practitioners, and International Professional Institutes in Engineering
and Supply Chain Management, and provide a new standard for Lean
Supply Chain Management Courses and Certification. This accredited educational
program can ultimately lead to a degree in Quality Management. Courses
are delivered via distance education and on-line learning modules so
individual students anywhere in the world can participate.
