Overview:
The operations functions of any business have always been vital to the organization’s success, but are becoming even more so in a business environment that includes ever-increasing pressures from customers, competitors, investors, the economy, employees, the community, regulators, the environment, and other stakeholders.
Increasing numbers of companies are recognizing that a deeper focus on sustainability – improved environmental, social, and financial performance – results in greater resilience, profitability, innovation, and competitive advantage for the organization. Additionally, the leading organizations recognize that operations is a key player in the organization’s pursuit of sustainability, and can be a key driver or limiter, depending on its performance.
Whether your organization is well-advanced, just starting out, or somewhere in the middle in terms of integrating sustainability into your operations to drive innovation, profitability, and competitive advantage, this presentation will help you to take your operational sustainability performance to the next level. Key topics that will be discussed include:
- Sustainability best practices that can be employed in key operational areas, such as MRP and procurement, manufacturing, warehousing and logistics, transportation and distribution, and product end-of-life.
- Why sustainability should be viewed as being just as mission-critical as a strong quality or customer-service process.
- Examples of innovation that are helping companies overcome obstacles and pursue the benefits of increased operational sustainability.
- Real-world examples of companies of various sizes and types that are leading the way in driving financial and strategic value to their organizations through increased operational sustainability.
