Optimizing Your Supply Chain Management with Big Data
Companies must increasingly cope with a proliferation of "big data", not only from across their organization but from outside the organization's walls. There has been a lot of buzz about new information technologies, from the cloud to personal digital devices, that are generating an expanding sea of information about the business environment. The ability to exploit and capture knowledge from this data is being held as the key to improved business performance. Companies are trying to understand how this new data revolution will impact their businesses.
In June's Business in Focus series, AmCham China has invited Noel Greis from the Kenan-Flagler Business School at the University of North Carolina to share lessons learned by companies that have derived benefit from data-driven analytics in their operations, especially their supply chain operations.
The presentation will discuss from a business perspective, how the recent explosion of data and new analytics is leading to new insights about how to improve business performance. Through a series of mini-cases, the session will explore how several large companies are turning this challenge into opportunities to both identify and serve new markets through better global supply chains.
This presentation will provide an interesting set of discussion points for managers who must understand how to manage in this new world of data-driven decision-making.
This event is the third in the Business in Focus event series, featuring expert speakers from the faculties of participating business schools: Beijing International MBA at Peking University (BiMBA), Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business, Guanghua School of Management, Peking University, Richard Ivey School of Business, Simon Graduate School of Business-University of Rochester, Tsinghua University-The University of North Carolina EMBA Program, and the University of Maryland Robert H. Smith School of Business.
