Automotive Logistics Session 5: Securing the goods
Wednesday 23rd May, 2018 | 9:00 – 10:15

The primary job of automotive logistics operators is and will remain serving plants, partners, dealers and customers at the right time, with the right quality and at the right cost. However, complex technologies, regulations and locations add new risk and requirements, and manufacturers and logistics providers must look to new processes and tools to keep their supply chains safe.

This session will consider:

  • How new technology can help inbound and service parts supply chains
  • Cyber security risks and strategies
  • What can be done in terms of the data to help reduce damage and cost levels

Take this opportunity to refocus on your core rationale and contemplate the role IT could play in helping with the most fundamental logistics activities of all.

Key executives and academics discuss the respective roles of different departments and stakeholders on leading digital transformation across all layers of manufacturing and the supply chain.

Join the discussion to learn:

  • How automotive IT and supply chain departments are adjusting to their role in the digital era
  • How CIOs, CDOs and other department heads work together to digitalize their operations
  • The biggest IT and supply chain challenges and opportunities automakers and suppliers face
  • The role of universities, training and startups in advancing – and disrupting – the industry
