Auditing the Supply Chain Performance of Companies: 6th version of our Training Course
Supply chain auditing is becoming a strategic lever for companies in a context where supply chains must be efficient, agile, and resilient. France Supply Chain has been offering a unique certification course in France since 1997: "Auditing the performance of corporate supply chains." The latest version goes further in terms of criteria related to digitalization and CSR, offering updated content for assessing and sustainably transforming organizational performance.
Why measure the performance of its Supply Chain?
Measuring the performance of your supply chain is, above all, a way to improve. The assessment framework provides a clear picture of the level of maturity and mastery of supply chain fundamentals, positioning you in relation to industry best practices. This approach allows you to:
- Identify areas for improvement.
- To drive a dynamic of continuous improvement.
- Effectively lead teams and their projects.
- To strengthen the cross-functional nature of the Supply Chain function within the company.
In a second step, the tool cross-references the audit results with the company's overall strategy in order to identify areas for improvement. Backed by a methodology proven in more than 300 audits, this tool raises awareness and highlights the decisive impact of supply chain operations on overall performance.
