The U.S. imported approximately $600 billion worth of products from China in 2020. Over half of these imports were capital goods used by U.S. manufacturers. Clearly, U.S. operations are heavily dependent on Chinese made goods. The same holds true for U.S. supply chains. Sixty cents of every dollar U.S. consumers spend on made-in-China goods go to the U.S. companies responsible for putting Chinese products into their hands. Counterbalancing the ongoing need for U.S.- China trade is the fact that relations between the two countries are at their lowest point since diplomatic relations were established in 1972. Successful supply chain managers need to develop new risk mitigation strategies when sourcing from China.

When designing business processes for supply chain, we often start by planning to implement best practices. What can be easily overlooked is the actual needs of the business, both now and in the future. Sometimes a less mature or simplified version of a best practice may be the right solution to achieve business excellence, with a roadmap for process maturity as the business changes. In this presentation I will discuss aligning best practices with business needs for Planning and Inventory based processes.
By now we know the importance of planning for the unknowns and COVID has only highlighted the need for strong partnerships across the organization when it comes to scenario planning. But how does an organization perform scenario planning successfully such that everyone is aligned to a plan or multiple plans. It is a culmination of culture, process, technology, partnerships, etc. and the information presented is meant to provoke the thought process on how to marry scenario planning with S&OP processes and technologies.
