Defence organisations have been managing their supply chains since the dawn of commerce. Now, with the application of new technology, possibilities exist to enjoy the benefits of modern-day supply chain management.
The defence industry is complicated, so introducing the right technology to supply chain management is both time-consuming and costly. However, many countries and businesses have begun the process. Countries whose Defence departments are undertaking major supply chain initiatives, and whose prime contractors have also gone their own way and established supply chain management systems in their own right.
With representatives attending from the major players in this industry, this conference will meet all your networking requirements. And what’s more, you can gain all these contacts in just 2 days! And with our lunches promoting open debate, you will have the perfect opportunity to build these relationships and exchange industry specific knowledge.
