A Transport, Logistics & Manufacturing Business Networking and Forum Event

The Impact of Supply Chain Disruption on your Business

18th May 2018, 2.30pm – 5.00pm

Venue: Pall Mall, Institute of Directors, 116 Pall Mall, London, SW1Y 5ED

Please join IoD Central London, IoD Hertfordshire, IoD Essex and the North London Chamber of Commerce & Enterprise at the beautiful Burton Room at 116 Pall Mall, where we will be hearing from Neil Roll and Paul Stone from the Supply Chain Academy and Nick Roberts from BAE Systems.

As the UK leaves the EU, we more than ever need to consider how the impact of Supply Chain disruption can negatively affect the supply of materials or stock, the continuity of service to our customers, your reputation and more importantly, your bottom line.

Unfortunately, the cause of the disruption often goes unexposed until a catastrophic event occurs. By then, it may already be too late to mitigate the risk and those negative effects.

At this event they will discuss:

  • Strategically optimising your Supply Chain Management
  • The difference between contingency planning and supply chain risk management
  • The significant long term impact of supply chain disruptions
  • Why supply chain risk management activities require enterprise-wide participation
  • How companies can take proactive, actionable steps to add significant resilience to their supply chain operation, often without requiring significant levels of investment
  • The skills needed to leverage your supply chain for cost efficiency
