Description

As businesses at all levels become increasingly-dependent on outsourcing, supply chains are becoming more complex by the day. To such an extent that even the smallest businesses no longer operate independently, but instead count on third parties to facilitate their everyday operations. Or to put it another way, all businesses are dependent on countless other businesses to function. The more complex the supply chain becomes, the greater the capacity for problems and inefficiencies to creep into the equation. Precisely why organisations worldwide place enormous value on the skills, knowledge and competencies of the qualified supply chain manager.
