People Issues Need to be Addressed in Order to Profit from Supply Chain Synergy
Prior to taking action on capturing supply chain synergy, Chief Supply Chain Officers need to develop an understanding of the impact that people and related cultural issues can have. Success requires acknowledging these cultural issues and developing a methodology for addressing them. This Constellation Research, Inc. quark focuses on the six cultural issues surrounding supply chain synchronization.
Effectively solving these six cultural issues while developing supply chain transport synergy programs represents a critical success factor. Those who proceed without addressing these cultural issues will find themselves unable to initiate a viable supply chain synergy transport operation.
