Welcome to ISCM Asian Supply Chain Thought Leadership Summit 2017. Global trade patterns are undergoing yet another tectonic shift – from globalization to de-globalization, from bilateral treaties to trading blocks, from trade collaboration to a looming trade war, from tracking to Big Data Analytics and IoT. Add to it, consumers are no longer willing to wait patiently or forgive errors. Supply chains are under immense pressure to perform above consumer expectations, deliver to tighter TATs and keep costs low.

Are We Really Prepared?Undoubtedly, these trends will complicate an already complex supply chain and firms must act with urgency to maintain their lead between winners and losers. Those who plan properly stand the best chance to survive and thrive in a dynamic market.

The Summit is a place to facilitate deeper knowledge and collaboration between logistics and transportation professionals from carrier, shipper, logistics service provider, and technology verticals.

From To Agenda

9.00 AM 9.30 AM Registration

9.30 AM 10.00 AM Navigating the Global Prefect Storm - Geo-political forces shaping Supply Chains in India - Are we Ready? Geo-political re-alignments are re-drawing the supply chains across the world. Today, businesses operate in an environment where geo-economic forces are interacting with shifting geopolitical realities creating a perfect storm. This session will focus on how firms need to develop strategic awareness of the new geo-political influences reshaping global businesses and their supply chains. It addresses the moot question – how prepared are we to meet these challenges.

10.00 AM 10.30 AM Digitization, Connected Objects, and e-Supply ChainsDigitization, IoT and the Internet are changing the way organizations transact. The biggest change is in the domain of consumer buying behavior – the digital netizen has a different set of parameters for buying. The moot word is speed. Delays in the whole cycle – from discovery to ordering to fulfilment. Supply chains have to reboot to integrate digitalization, Connected Objects, and the e-customer. This calls for innovative solutions and thinking on the feet.

10.30 AM 11.00 AM Importance of Logistics Clusters in IndiaFreight transport gridlocks and logistics inefficiencies define Indian logistics sector. High logistics costs mean that firms are less competitive and prices are unnecessarily high. Identifying bottlenecks, opportunities for strategic investment and collocation of activities to achieve lower costs of logistics and trade is the need of the hour. Some of the answers to these questions are rooted in the phenomenon of logistics clusters--geographically concentrated sets of logistics-related business activities. The speaker will share opinions on this phenomenon.

11.00 AM 11.15 AM Tea Break

11.15 AM 11.45 AM Strategies for Emerging Trade Lanes and the Role of LSPsOne Belt, One Road is a development strategy and framework, proposed by China that focuses on connectivity and cooperation among countries primarily between the People’s Republic of China and the rest of Eurasia, which consists of two main components, the land-based “Silk Road Economic Belt” (SREB) and oceangoing “Maritime Silk Road” (MSR). Alongside, the ASEAN nations have come together in an alliance called ASEAN Economic Community. The establishment of AEC in 2015 is a major milestone in the regional economic integration agenda in ASEAN, offering opportunities in the form of a huge market of US$2.6 trillion and over 622 million people. These two initiatives have the ability to re-define Indian Economy. This session will throw light on the impact of these initiatives, and how India should capitalize on it.

11.45 AM 1.00 PM Disruptive Technology and Supply ChainsThe hyper rapid developments in the technology domain have the power to disrupt our supply chains. As it is, supply chains are as much about flow of information as about goods and finance. However, a handful of technologies – from Blockchains to Internet of Things to machine Learning to Augmented Reality is set to radically transform supply chains. Firms have to balance the objectives of driving costs down, provide on-demand gratification, and enhance efficiency. The secret to this is harnessing automation and Information Technology – with smart machines, big data, mobility and cloud computing. The speaker will share her views on how firms can balance growth; enhance operational efficiency through IT and automation. The speaker will share the developments from across the world and offer a roadmap for Indian firms.

1.00 PM 2.00 PM Lunch & Networking

2.00 PM 2.30 PM Motivational Speaker

2.30 PM 3.00 PM Future Direction of Supply Chain ManagementMany global supply chains are not equipped to cope with the VUCA world. Traditional supply chains could manage stable, high-volume production by capitalizing on low cost labor available in some countries. Today the relative attractiveness of manufacturing locations changes quickly—along with the ability to produce large volumes economically. Such traditional approaches can leave supply chains dangerously exposed. To remain in business, supply chain leaders must marry the demand-driven consumer value chain with their business strategy to create a supply chain strategy and in turn identify key capabilities required for profitable fulfilment. The speaker will share his views on aligning supply chains to consumer and the strategy of the firm. This CEO forum discuss the contours of the new supply chain paradigm.

3.00 PM 4.00 PM Reaching the Rural Last MileThe next big market for India is the rural hinterland. Much of rural India is plagued by poor infrastructure, lack of visibility and disaggregated population. However, rural India is aspirational, willing to spend and emerging as a key to profitable growth. The speaker will share opinions on the structure of the rural markets and what it takes to succeed.

4.00 PM 4.15 PM Tea Break

4.15 PM 4.45 PM Managing uncertainty & risks in supply chainsWe are in a VUCA world. To add to it, Supply Chains have become inter linked and complex. Any delay or default propagates quickly through the chain, causing supply chain disruptions, and loses. Each node in the chain will have to act with the objective of the entire chain – not just their own interests. The panel will debate on how each entity should manage the uncertainty under their control, but keep the overall objectives of the chain in mind. Risk mitigation at one node should not create new risks down the line

4.45 PM 5.45 PM 3PL, User and Supply Chain Collaboration - Strategic ImperativesThe world is moving toward a dynamically aligned supply chain – one where every node of the supply chain is aligned to the overall goal of supply chain efficiency. One way in which this alignment can shape up is by improving collaboration of all the supply chain entities. India has a long way to go in this respect. This session seeks to bring various stakeholders – 3PLs, users and other entities on a common platform to develop the broad contours of a collaboration framework.
