Supply Chain Costing and Performance Management

This presentation is based on the book “Supply Chain Costing and Performance Management” that Gary Cokins co-authored published by John Wiley & Sons. The book is a result of a research study to examine the application of supply chain profit and costing measurement methods in multiple industries and international settings.

 

Learning Objectives:

  • Why there is pressure on supply chain trading partners to collaborate rather than be adversarial.
  • Why customers are the source of shareholder wealth creation for suppliers.
  • How to measure and manage supplier, product, channel, and customer profitability.
  • Why as differentiation from product advantages is reduced or neutralized due to commoditization, then service level differentiation matters, and the customer relationship grows in importance as a competitive advantage.
  • How to shift the mindset from growing sales to growing profitable sales and to view customers as investments like in a stock portfolio to seek higher ROIs – return on customers (ROC).
  • How to consider influencing a company’s suppliers’ suppliers and customers’ customers – second tiers and above.

Compiling Supplier Data to Inform Sustainability Compliance

As the regulatory landscape continues to shift with new mandates like CSRD, CSDDD, and SEC disclosures, creating a streamlined supplier engagement strategy is more critical than ever. This webinar will guide you through developing a strategy that efficiently gathers the necessary data for compliance without overwhelming your suppliers. We'll explore how to minimize supplier fatigue by aligning your questions with multiple standards, reducing the number of requests, and ensuring a smooth compliance process. Additionally, we'll discuss how to integrate these data collection practices into your procurement lifecycle—from pre-contract phases to value creation moments—so you can expedite compliance, mitigate risks, and decarbonize your supply chain. Join us to learn how to make regulatory requirements a seamless part of your procurement strategy.
