Analysis and Reporting for Supply Chain Management

Supply chain analysis has two important goals: discovering what happens in a supply chain, and then explaining that story to leadership in a compelling way. It’s equal parts detective and storyteller. In this course, learn how to get better at both parts by connecting technology tools and the day-to-day expectations of supply chain managers. Instructor Eddie Davila explains how tools—both communication and data—can help with stakeholder requirements and improve analytics and processes. Find out about the tools that can help sell ideas, make decisions, solve problems, manage relationships, and more.
