The sudden spread of Coronavirus has undoubtedly affected many companies and industries globally, however it has also
brought forward some great opportunities as well. One of those opportunities has been the fast growing digital
transformation and the adoption of innovative technologies that companies have gone through, to adapt to the new normal.
In today’s world, modern Supply Chain must transform in order to meet new demands and supply chain challenges, and
supply chain leaders need to plan ahead to keep the flow of goods and services as straightforward as possible. The

and a range of other solutions have made it possible for the manufacturers to deliver their products and services to the
customers on time despite all the challenges caused by the Coronavirus. Supply Chain companies need to become more
innovative and technologically advanced if they are to deal with the complexity of today’s environment and they need to
develop the necessary infrastructures to meet the demands. As a result of the ongoing global pandemic, companies
everywhere are being challenged to make their global Supply Chains more resilient without weakening their
competitiveness in the market.

roof to share their experience, expertise and knowhow in dealing with challenges during crisis.

S&OP and other industry professionals with a platform where they can get the insights into the latest innovations, tools
and technologies to overcome the challenges they are facing in their day-to-day operations.
