Supply Chain Lessons from COVID-19

April 29, 2020 |

It is now clear: shorter supply chains are stronger, more competitive supply chains. Register today!

Presented By:

This four-part webinar series, presented Gardner Business Media and the Reshoring Initiative, will deliver real data, proven strategies and successful use cases that will empower procurement professionals to shorten and strengthen their supply chain by sourcing parts and services locally. 

COVID-19 has revealed deadly shortages of medical products due to 90 to 95% dependence on imports, especially from China. Government and companies are scrambling to implement short-term emergency assembly and create domestic sources for critical imported components. Similar dependence is true in many key industry sectors including defense materiel. It is now clear: shorter supply chains are stronger, more competitive supply chains. In the first webinar in this series, Harry will demonstrate that shorter supply chains are also more profitable for OEM and supplier for 20 to 40% of products. Tools to identify the 20 to 40% will be provided.

Primary Topics:

  • Reshoring is profitable for 20-40% of what you and your customers now import
  • How to identify the products most eligible to reshore
  • How to quantify the costs and risks of offshoring
  • How to convince companies to reshore and buy from you

Your Registration Includes:

  • Live and on-demand access to all Smarter Sourcing Series webinars (a registration code will be sent with your registration confirmation)
  • Exclusive Reshoring Initiative resources
  • Proceeds from your registration will support the Reshoring Initiative
