Presentation Outline

Today’s supply chain professionals can no longer rely on spreadsheets. They need more sophisticated tools to be able to plan, model, forecast, deliver on promises, and collaborate with other departments. There are also hundreds of tools available to help with your jobs. But the more you learn about these tools, the more confusing it gets. You have much bigger tools such as ERP systems that can do a lot of things that you might need. Then you may hear other systems such as S&OP, WMS, TMS, or P2P.

As supply chain professionals, you not only need to be proficient with these tools, you might also be responsible for procuring them. To understand how each of these tools and how they fit into the overarching corporate and departmental IT strategy, you need to at least understand the basics of these tools and perhaps their pros and cons. Join us for an insightful session with an ERP and digital transformation thought leader as he provides the virtual tour of IT strategy and supply chain systems.

Here is what you can expect from the session:

• The organizational structure of different industries and their IT needs
• Different enterprise architecture patterns and their pros and cons
• The pros and cons of each system such as ERP, S&OP, WMS, TMS, and P2P
• Where each of these systems fit in the enterprise architecture and corporate IT strategy.
