If the past few years have shown businesses anything, it’s that they need the agility and resilience to adapt to volatile market conditions. However, that’s easier said than done — supply chains are exceptionally complex, and there’s little visibility into key data as well as insufficient means for collaboration and communication. This makes it difficult to respond to commodity fluctuations and price changes, estimate and understand full product and component costs, and quickly secure alternative supply sources.

How can enterprises optimize costs and operations while adapting to market conditions and taking the sting out of volatility? By having the solutions and tools in place to gain a clearer understanding of direct material sourcing.

In this webinar, GEP experts will explore direct material cost improvement best practices and how a mix of services, tools and software can help enterprises source efficiently and build resilience.
