The need for world class supply chains

The past few years have been difficult, but there are signs that the economy is rebounding. Operational managers have very high hopes that new investments in technology will improve supply-chain performance. However any supply-chain managers who expect new technologies to produce instant results are going to be disappointed. The supply-chain game over the next few years will be more about fundamentals, both for the technology vendors and for the users. With economic activity heating up, businesses are again eager to compete in the global arena. To do so, they need to raise the performance of their supply chains to world-class levels.
