Professional Sectors & Forums - Supply Chain Integration Technology

Chairman: Denis O'Sullivan  FCILT

Aims and objectives:

As supply chains become more complex, so information technology systems have developed to enable the management of this complexity. The success of these systems has in turn led to more complexity in the supply chain, and the need for real time solutions to allow 24x7 management and control. The Internet is helping deliver, but the rapid development of web technologies is bringing new and exciting opportunities to supply chain and logistics managers.

The Supply Chain Integration Technology Forum will provide a vehicle for keeping members up-to-date with what is currently available and what is in the development pipeline in the short, medium, and long term. It will also provide a forum for members to give feedback to technology providers about what they want to see in information systems to enable them to deliver business excellence through their supply chains.

Some of the developments the Forum will be keeping a close eye on are:

  • Future of supply chain technology
  • Collaboration and visibility
  • Extended supply chain
  • Order management
  • International/global
  • Software as a service/on-demand
  • Web developments
  • Telephone technology - including mobile solutions and SMS
  • Supply chain and the environment
  • Customer information management
