As business executives contend with weaker backlogs and heightened supply chain risks and concerns about business stability due to tariffs, cash and certainty have emerged as hot topics for ensuring success. Whether executives are thinking about reducing inventory levels to accelerate cash flow to invest in the business or evaluating predictive and transforming programs like SIOP (Sales Inventory Operations Planning) and advanced technologies, the best clients are taking action. As the future becomes clearer with the passing of the tax law, formation of trade deal frameworks and the Fed starting the interest rate reduction cycle, manufacturers and distributors must remain alert to the opportunities.

Our panel of manufacturing and supply chain consultants and experts will discuss cash and certainty, relate these concepts to the current business environment, its challenges and opportunities, and discuss what key clients are doing to thrive in this volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) environment. We will discuss differing perspectives from around the world, what leaders should do to take advantage of the opportunities coming down the pike, and how manufacturers and supply chain organizations should pivot for success. Listen to our Pac Rim/ North America and Europe/ North America perspectives on what’s trending and how to successfully navigate these turbulent times and improve business performance.

Meet the panelists.
