About This Peer Group

Firms in industries of all types are realizing that competitive advantages can be gained — or lost — based on the functioning of their supply chains. The leaders in these companies understand the value of intentionally planning the design of their supply chains, reducing uncertainty through collaboration with suppliers and customers, improving forecasts, optimizing inventory levels, streamlining logistics and eliminating costs. The Supply Chain Management Peer Group is a forum for leaders and senior practitioners in supply chain functions to share and discuss the business strategies and practices critical to realizing these goals, and to glean actionable insights for achieving excellence in supply chain management from experienced peers.

Using the UW E-Business Consortium’s proven Peer Group format, representatives from member companies meet quarterly for a highly interactive, professionally facilitated discussion in a collaborative, non-commercial environment. Member and subject-matter-expert case studies are regularly featured. Regular participants have the opportunity to form valuable business relationships with like-minded SCM professionals from a diverse set of industries.
