Description
During COVID-19, one lesson has become painfully clear for manufacturers: Smooth and agile operations in the factory are critical to avoiding large-scale supply chain disruption.
With fewer resources—in budget and workforce—and unpredictable demand, persevering in the new environment requires manufacturers to drive efficiency in new ways. Manufacturers must pivot fast and leverage the lessons learned during the pandemic, putting the factory at the heart of their strategic operations. Those who gain control of inventory can prevent shortages, maximize working capital efficiency, and respond to challenges with agility—today, tomorrow, and beyond.
Join LeanDNA’s CRO, Tod Klubnik, and Sr. Director of Customer Success, Daniel Taylor, along with Mike Louderback, VP of Operational Excellence at Morgan Advanced Materials, as they discuss the effects of COVID-19 on global inventory optimization strategy. They’ll reveal best practices from top manufacturers to pivot inventory operations, and steps leaders will need to take to gain supply chain agility in 2021.
You’ll learn:
- Why it’s imperative to focus on factory execution, and leverage visibility and insights for a competitive advantage in 2021
- How to achieve better factory efficiency without sacrificing the humanity of your workforce
- Best practices from top manufacturers who have used the crisis as an impetus for modernization
