Join us in-person or virtually for an MxD Project Workshop to learn more about the impact of MxD’s project 17-02-01: Supply Chain Risk Alert. Please register here by November 12th.

Supply chain visibility is important for cost reduction, market share protection and growth. Mitigating supply chain risks is traditionally addressed from an inbound perspective. This workshop offers an outbound perspective thereby allowing pro-active risk mitigation. The first panel offers a demonstration of a prototype solution developed for a Dow, Inc. case study and a discussion of its application in the context high volume outbound logistics. The second panel is a discussion of potential adoption by other manufacturers, key partnerships and synergies. More info @ MxD
