11:55 Driving Reliability-Thinking in Your MRO Supply Chain

Disruptive innovation, compressed product life cycles and changing consumer expectations are driving companies to focus on becoming more efficient and reliable. But diffusing risk, flatter org structures and the broader impact of supplier solutions contribute to getting more people across more roles involved in the decision-making process than ever before. The challenge is that, all too often, the risk of the status quo is greatly underestimated. It's not until the supply chain is viewed as a core-enabling, end-to-end process, that risks can be properly identified, quantified, and addressed. How can you drive changes in the behaviors within your organization to break out of the status quo, explore alternate courses of action and achieve group consensus to make it happen? This discussion will walk through how SDI works with cross-functional teams within their clients’ organizations to drive the change management process, to help coordinate, align and optimize every link in the supply chain.
