Supply Chain Management Forum
18 - 22 October, 2009,
Dusit Thani Hotel,
Dubai, UAE

In today’s competitive business environment and uncertain economic climate, even greater demands are being placed on businesses to provide products more quickly, with more added value, to the correct location and on time.

With supply chain management (SCM) being a crucial function for any organisation, the processes of planning, implementation and control of supply chain operations need to be as efficient as possible.

As businesses grow more complex, so do their supply chains. From the point-of-origin to the point-of-consumption, organisations in the Middle East are seeking to improve the movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and finished goods. Companies are differentiating themselves when it comes to supplier selection, sourcing, procurement, conversion and logistics.

In response to industry demand, IIR Middle East is pleased to inform you about the Supply Chain Management Forum being held from 18 - 22 October 2009 at the Dusit Thani Hotel, Dubai, UAE.

This major event is designed for managers like you, to update your understanding of new supply chain thinking, logistics and warehousing concepts and to build your competencies in overcoming obstacles in implementing strategies and plans. The event will feature a high level forum dedicated to addressing specific challenges faced by supply chain, transport and logistics professionals like you.

  • Nurturing multi-supplier relationships to decrease costs, minimise risks and maximise profits
