Recent years have shown supply chains matter, and they now need strategic reimagination. To deliver on this mandate, the Chief Operating Officer (COO) role has been evolving too, especially within the supply chain realm.

Today's COO must seamlessly integrate performance metrics and modern technology to navigate complex challenges and capitalise on emerging opportunities.  Key performance indicators (KPIs) are evolving beyond traditional measures of on-time delivery/service, quality and cost performance to incorporate resilience, strategic agility, and sustainability.

The leaders need to make the most of advanced software to drive data-driven decision-making and strategic agility.  Moreover, soft (management) skills, adaptability, and collaboration have become critical, permitting COOs to foster innovation and resilience in their business.  Most supply chain software deployed today poses integration challenges and inefficiencies as traditional on-premise systems were just not designed for the modern era.

Join us for an insightful webinar in which we delve into how COOs are redefining supply chain performance by strategically developing talent and using the right supply chain software to ensure their businesses thrive in an unexpectedly evolving marketplace.

This webinar will cover the following topics:

  • The evolving role of COO in the digital supply chain era
  • Challenges and opportunities for supply chain software to deliver performance
  • Modern Supply Chain Software
