SUMMARY:Manufacturing Reimagined: Supply Chain Part I: New Supplier Validation & Best Practices
DESCRIPTION:As a manufacturer\, when one of your suppliers has an issue getting you components\, it can create problems. When that problem gets compounded by a global pandemic\, the results can be catastrophic.

That’s the state of affairs we’re currently experiencing in this pandemic. \nMore and more companies are looking to add new vendors to their supply chain\, and the question becomes how can you validate suppliers and make sure your final selection will help to mitigate future risk? \nRegister to Attend\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nManufacturing Reimagined is a series of webinars and workshops to help manufacturers manage the challenges created by COVID-19\, emerge from the crisis more resilient and adaptable\, and prepare for future emergencies. \nThese virtual training and educational opportunities include topics such as emergency preparedness\, supply chain utilization during crisis\, cybersecurity and digitization\, equipment strategies for manufacturing resiliency\, and disaster recovery. \n
