Season 2, Episode 4: Total Value Optimization: Transforming Your Global Supply Chain into a Competitive Weapon

CSCMPodcast: Supply Chain Conversation - CSCMP

CSCMP President Rick Blasgen and Maine Pointe CEO Steven Bowen discuss "Total Value Optimization," the concept of transforming global supply chains into competitive weapons, and how his approach differs from the many attempts to achieve this goal over past decades. How precisely does data analytics figure into this? How can companies cope with the flood of data that's available to them today? What are some specific examples of companies that have achieved this? Where do the biggest challenges lie?

Steve has more than 30 years of P&L experience, leading turnarounds, high-growth businesses and is the author of Total Value Optimization: Transforming Your Global Supply Chain into a Competitive Weapon," which asserts there is no time like the present for CEOs to "stress test" their company's supply chains.
