Supply Chain Frontiers issue #47
The MIT Center for Transportation & Logistics (MIT CTL) has launched the Advances in Supply Chain Management webinar series, which will feature cutting-edge research from the Center. The first event, Supply Chain Strategy in Complex Markets, takes place on November 14, 2012, from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. EST.
This first event presents the findings of research on how to keep supply chain strategy (SCS) aligned with corporate strategy in today’s highly complex business environment. The presenter, Dr. Roberto Perez-Franco, Director of MIT CTL’s SC2020 project, will describe a structured, actionable methodology for tackling issues such as how to identify the strengths and weaknesses of an existing SCS and the challenges of implementing a new one.
Perez-Franco has completed eight years of collaborative management research with partners as diverse as Fortune 100 companies, the US government, and the United Nations. The webinar is a unique opportunity to gain early access to new research on SCS that is due to be published next year.
