Faculties & Policies

Supply Chain Integration Technology Forum

Chairman: Denis O'Sullivan  FCILT

Your Institute is introducing some changes, making us more open and relevant to you, whichever sector of logistics or transport you work in.

We are replacing the four Faculties with eight Professional Sectors. These Professional Sectors will provide specialist activity for a particular area of interest whilst continuing to offer opportunity and involvement across the profession.

What you need to do...

We are now asking all members to update their details and tell us which Professional Sectors and Forums they want to belong to as soon as possible. You can do this in a number of ways - online through ‘My Membership', complete the Member Selection form that you will shortly receive in Focus, or complete the form included on the Current Awareness Bulletin over the next few weeks.

Please note, you can now belong to as many Professional Sectors and Forums as you wish.

Should you wish to make your selections online, please remember that you will need to create your password to login if you have not already done so. A short guide to making your selection online is available here.

Supply Chain Integration Technology Forum

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
