presents the

XVI ANNUAL STRATEGIC SUPPLY MANAGEMENT FORUM

November 8 - 9, 2001
held at the University of San Diego,
Douglas F. Manchester Executive Conference Center

Take Away Real Time Solutions from our Round Table Discussions!

LEADING SUPPLY CHAIN PRACTITIONERS from major corporations with DAVID N. BURT, Director of the Supply Chain Management Institute, will address TEN TIMELY TOPICS. Each presenter will give a concise presentation followed by ATTENDEES PARTICIPATING IN ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION GROUPS. Each group will have a facilitator to ensure understanding and internalization of worthwhile concepts. Sponsoring firms will receive the most return on their investment by sending a CROSS-FUNCTIONAL TEAM of four participants including one member of the Supply Management Department. This format provides agents of change with REAL TIME SOLUTIONS in the transformation of their organizations to WORLD CLASS STATUS. Our objective continues to have all attendees take away two or more innovative ideas to internalize in their firms' supply chains. INNOVATIVE APPROACHES, CONTEMPORARY TOPICS, and EXECUTIVE LEVEL ATTENDEES are at the core of the Forum's leading edge reputation.
