Are you sick of rescheduling customer deliveries because of supplier delays?
Are you struggling to find the right materials at the best price for your organization?
Are you frustrated by the lack of transportation options for your products?
You are presented with supply chain challenges every day ranging from the identification of new suppliers and materials through manufacturing transportation and distribution to customers. You are not alone. It is common for both complex, multi-national original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and small or mid-sized manufacturers in this country to be faced with these challenges.
From reducing risk and volatility to identifying and collaborating with suppliers through understanding the true total cost of the supply chain, the National Manufacturing Extension Partnership Supply Chain Optimization (MEP SCO) initiative provides an opportunity to assess and implement a strategic solution.
