Day Two - 27th April 2022

10:00 AM Digital Transformation of the "Plant-to-Patient" Supply Chain

While Covid-19 has exposed the cracks in global businesses, supply chain leaders now have a seat at the table to build a future-ready enterprise. Disconnected data, the crucial need for real-time visibility, and the lack of predictive analytics stand in the way of accelerating innovation, staying competitive in the market and restructuring global supply chains to be more agile.

In 2019, one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world partnered with TransVoyant starting their journey to develop a patient-centered Digital Logistics Program. They focused from the plant to the patient reimagining their ways of working, building digital capabilities with well-developed use cases and delivering value as quickly as possible.

This session will address: 

• Approaches to activating the virtual control tower

• How to overcome business challenges, provide use cases and establish value drivers

• IoT enablement in supply chain digital transformation

• Delivering value at start of the journey
