Manufacturing Supply Chain Learning Opportunities

This program provides a baseline “Supply Chain Maturity” self-assessment that eligible manufacturers can complete online.  This will help inform actions for the assessment team in order to make recommendations to the manufacturer to help improve their practices/processes around supply chain management.

Interested manufacturers will have a formal report out on their self-assessment and be eligible for up to 8-hours of assistance that may come in the form of training or customized tool development based on gaps identified in the assessment.
