OVERVIEW

Supply Chain Management (SCM) is rapidly evolving as more and more corporations view it as a major source of value creation. In the effort to meet targets of ever shorter turnover times, waste reduction, and performance optimization while managing relationships with suppliers, SCM organizations are modernizing their systems and updating skills requirements. This creates a demand for a new breed of data-savvy analysts, adept at quickly processing large, complex data sets, automating data mining and analysis, and effectively communicating results.

Are you ready to upgrade what you’ve learned as a supply chain management professional by complementing it with the awesome analytical power of Excel?  Whether you are a practicing SCM professional or want to enhance your capabilities, this course is for you.

Who Should Attend?

SCM Professionals who want to become data-savvy and supply their companies with advanced analytics to help optimize performance and maximize savings.  

What Value can I expect?  

Aside from SCM-related exercises, this workshop provides tools and templates you can use immediately upon your return to work:

  • RFP Builder
  • Segmentation and Tiering Tool
