Even if you are very focused on a specific project or focus of supply chain enablement, it's important to see this in the context of a broader digitalisation roadmap. In the interdependent context of supply chain, it's vital to see the dependencies and to understand the target outcomes. In this discussion we explore how to visualise, position, and set a roadmap in place for success, ensuring outcomes meet objectives and avoiding missteps. For this discussion we' draw on expertise from SAP experts Olivehorse, and will involve a range of businesses looking at either wholesale transformation or specific elements of automation.

In the past few months, the cost of freight has hit sudden, all-time highs, rendering regular budget planning impossible. How can we get better visibility of costs to pre-empt and avoid additional expense?
AGENDA
Derisking freight cost volatility with e2e, SKU-level visibility
What drives unexpected costs to your freight spend? Blind spots: what's preventing or limiting visibility and how can these be eliminated? Data sources: which sources are most reliable and practical for better visibility e.g. real-time satellite data or supplier updates? Examples of data-driven strategies you can adopt to flatten cost volatility, driven by end-to-end, SKU-level visibility of your supply chain WHO FOR?
