SCRIA workshops bring the words of SCRIA alive and provide participants from customers and suppliers with a practical, lively, interactive forum to explore how to make it work for their specific situation. SCRIA workshops provide education and awareness for a better way of working together.
the aim of the workshop is to:
- challenge in an open forum the traditional methods prevalent today
- explore the fruitful ways of managing the supply chain relationships
- find out how other people are making supply chain management work
- find out how it is benefiting them and their companies
