Many organizations and supply networks are still mired in hierarchical, fragmented, and top-down approaches to supply chain management. Now firmly established as a strategic necessity, successful supply chain management requires a fully integrative approach: employees, processes, technology, functions, and even supply network partners need to be fully aligned and synchronized in order to build capability and thereby gain sustainable competitive advantage.

Organizational approaches need to move to where there is north-south goal alignment but a focus on east-west process performance. This year's conference will address these issues with concentrations on the sub-themes detailed above, including practical case-based examples of SCOR application. Join fellow supply chain professionals at Supply Chain World Europe in Madrid to learn, share and network with this year's top notch speakers. The conference has been designed to provide an optimum mix of notable keynotes, concurrent sessions, and networking opportunities.

We invite you to explore the web site to view the benefits specific to your supply chain role as well as the full overview of case studies, presentations and networking opportunities.
