NDIA’s Supply Chain Series:
Supply chain associations focus on developing best practices that are highly beneficial to supply chain professionals.  NDIA’s supply chain series focuses particularly on the supply chain where it intersects with national security.NDIA members are concerned about reforming evolving government regulations and strengthening industrial defense supply chains. All of these activities impact a company’s supply chain processes and practices.

 

NDIA’s supply chain series will clearly articulate the value of supply chain management in national security, which is enhanced by better managing supply chains across the entire defense industrial base.


 
This first event, Strategies for Creating Value amid Volatility, is planned to give senior leadership the high-level information needed to create an organizational supply chain strategy that benefits both their business and national security. 

 

The second event, Investing in Risk Management, is planned to give supply chain professionals, purchasing managers, and cost analysts insight to the types of risk found in supply chains for national defense products, how this risk impacts the value and economics of business and national security, and how this risk can be managed to deliver better performance.

 

The third event, Defeating the Threats, is planned to give supply chain professionals, program managers, and systems engineers an understanding of how decisions made in the early stages of a program can mitigate or avoid threats to product performance and delivery, as well as national security threats that could be embedded in their products through supply chain manipulation.
