About the Conference
Innovation is key to business improvement; supply chain planning and logistics are no exception. To meet ever-changing consumer demands, organisations must continually optimise the productivity of their demand and supply network due to global competition and new product and services introduction. Logistics services are also being drastically transformed through mobility, connectivity and the impact of Internet of Things is already very visible and quickly growing.
Leveraging modern technologies helps simplify processes, reduce costs, improve customer satisfaction, and provide greater control over your supply chain and logistics services. Organisations who adopt those modern practices that are flexible, account for disruptions, and support scalability for growth are the ones who will succeed in the long run.
Thanks to two keynotes from Professor Jan Stentoft from
University of Southern Denmark and from NOBIA AB logistics team (well know in Denmark for their HTH and Invita kitchen brands), we will explore real world examples and use cases on how advanced companies take their supply chain planning and logistics management to the next level. We will discuss the role of technology in these transitions and provide practical guidance on successful ways for utilising and deploying technology. In the afternoon workshops, we will deep dive in those modern solutions that can be implemented with any ERP backbone.
This conference is open to all, pending your registration confirmation. Located in the Vejle Golf Club, the event starts with a plenary session in the morning developing key strategies, followed by two parallel tracks, workshop-style, in the afternoon: one for Supply Chain Planning (incl. S&OP) and one for Logistics (incl. Warehouse and Transportation). For more details on the agenda, click here.
