Overview
For all the effort that companies devote to improving the performance of their supply chains, relatively few have unlocked the full potential of digital technologies. Seizing that opportunity, however, has proved surprisingly difficult for many companies. A common error is to overlook operational changes that would let a company take full advantage of digital technologies.
This Industry Graduate Diploma is a programme offered by SMU Academy. This programme provides a stepping stone to participants who are keen to upgrade and expand their knowledge in the ever-green and dynamic supply chain industry. It is a practice-based programme which seeks to equip participants with a holistic overview of the supply chain business function involving the digital transformation of the supply chain operations.
