Sinopse

Products are getting more complex and supply chains are getting longer—and not just because they are located in other countries. Some companies are doing it right, focusing on an integrated supply base. Others don’t think much about supply chain, content to let the chips fall where they may! In this week’s show, your host and visual system expert, Gwendolyn Galsworth, interviews Tricia Moody, supply chain expert and author/co-author of more than a dozen business improvement books, including five on Strategic Sourcing (or as experts in the field call it: The Spend). Listen and hear savvy ways to select your suppliers and help them improve their own processes instead blaming them for their failures. Hear what changes supplier behavior as Ms. Moody presents dozens of proven steps you can take to squeeze the cost out of your supply chain. Tune in and learn about companies that are doing it right and doing it better. Your call-in comments and questions are welcomed.
