How is data helping to transform the supply chains connecting the dots in the African healthcare market? How are technology providers and analytics specialists working with medical and development to bring cutting-edge capabilities to the frontline where it is needed most?Joining us on this episode of the podcast are two experts with their ears to the ground.Director of VillageReach's Global Technical Team and experienced health supply chain expert Tapiwa Mukwashi is our first guest. On a day-to-day basis, Tapiwa ensures VillageReach's various teams across Sub-Saharan Africa have the technical assistance they need to do their jobs, working closely with vendors such as data analytics company Kapsule to do just that. David Chen, Kapsule's Co-CEO and Co-Founder, also joins us to explain how.During the conversation, the duo highlight the progress made but emphasize the need for more mature modeling and professionalization of the supply chain to better underpin African healthcare networks. Here, the importance of skills, infrastructure, and technology to improve efficiency and visibility, especially at the last mile delivery level, are emphasized. The discussion also underscores the need for solutions tailored to the unique contexts of public health supply chains in Africa, focusing on the problem, building trust, and strategic implementation.It is a highly complex and nuanced landscape to navigate, and several key strands emerge during the podcast:· Building trust and collaboration among like-minded stakeholders to drive innovation in public health supply chains.· Identifying and addressing root problems rather than focusing solely on outcomes.· The role of optimism and perseverance in overcoming entrepreneurial challenges.To hear more from Tapiwa and David, tune in to the full conversation now.Additional Links & Resources:Learn more about Village Reach: https://www.villagereach.org/Learn more about Supply Chain Now: https://supplychainnow.comWEBINAR- Achieving the Next-Gen Control Tower in 2024: Lessons Learned from the High-Tech Industry: https://bit.ly/3Syzrn1WEBINAR- Data Driven Decision Making in Logistics: https://bit.ly/49lt102This episode is hosted by Scott Luton and Mary Kate Love.

Joining Scott Luton and special guest host Will Chu in today's episode of Supply Chain Now are two supply chain supremos in the form of Patrick Leblond, Director of Supply Chain Systems and Process Optimization at GAF, and his colleague Derek Heer, Supply Chain Systems & Process Optimization Manager.GAF is North America's largest roofing and waterproofing manufacturer, with over 4,000 employees and 35 manufacturing operations spread across 27 locations in the US.Due to this formidable footprint, its supply chain is extremely multifaceted and nuanced, and it is Patrick and Derek's job to ensure operations run as smoothly and efficiently as possible. This involves careful management and curation of a technology stack made up of different systems and software that sings in harmony. For example, a major priority for them right now is warehouse optimization, a multi-year project which involves the modernization of a legacy WMS platform.Patrick and Derek also spend a lot of time collaborating with and providing their own frontline insight to Will, who is the CEO and Co-founder of Vector, a yard management platform designed to increase visibility for supply chain personnel and their partners. Throughout the discussion, the trio touch on their working relationship and how the two companies are providing value for each other, including how Vector is helping GAF to gain greater visibility inside its operations.Several other big talking points are addressed during the rest of the podcast, including:· The battle to attract and retain talent.· Empowering the supply chain workforce to reach their full potential.· The traceability challenge in the building materials sector.· Tackling theft to optimize loss prevention.Interested to get Will, Patrick and Derek's take?

Diversity in the High Tech Industry with CompTIA researchers Carolyn April and Seth Robinson In this episode of the AWIT TechCast from CompTIA’s Advancing Women in Technology Community, host Cristina Greysman talks with tech industry researchers Carolyn April and Seth Robinson about the latest diversity report from CompTIA, “Diversity in the High-Tech Industry.” This quantitative study on diversity attitudes and realities in high tech businesses yield some interesting discoveries. According to those surveyed: * The diversity discussion is often contradictory * The gender gap is widest when it comes to pay equity * Hiring the most qualified candidate carries weight “One of the biggest takeaways, when we need to talk about diversity, is the need to get beyond the numbers,” April said. Rather than fill quotas, companies need to think about what they want from their employees: innovation, a multitude of perspectives and better business overall. “Diverse organizations do better, they’re better at business. There’s study after study that shows it.” To hear more from CompTIA Research tune into Volley, a podcast hosted by Carolyn April and Seth Robinson.
