Challenging Your Supply Chain Carbon Footprint Paradigm
Be prepared for a highly interactive event as
Dick Verbeek, CPIM, CIRM, CSCP
explores and challenges many of your beliefs as they relate to “green
supply chains”. Do some of
these paradigms prevent us from achieving our desired organization goals? Audience input will be combined with
North American survey data to identify several critical concepts
concerning the measurement, and subsequent reduction, of the carbon
footprint of global supply chains.
Utilizing government, industry and
environmental data, he will help you to understand the carbon footprint
generated by global supply chains.
Subsequently, Mr. Verbeek will present a
series of thought provoking optimization paradigms that will help you to
enhance your supply chain performance.
