New Zealand's supply chains are in "a serious, if not critical condition," requiring holistic systems thinking and a long-term focus, investment and government support to become stronger and more resilient, says self proclaimed supply chain tragic Dave Christie.Christie, who has worked in supply chain roles for the army, PwC, the Warehouse, Fonterra, Coda Group, Tainui Group Holdings developing the Ruakura Superhub, and Synergic Technologies, spoke to interest.co.nz in the latest episode of our Of Interest podcastabout NZ's supply chain issues and the Ministry of Transport's recently released Aotearoa New Zealand Freight and Supply Chain Strategy. Christie was part ofan industry reference group in the development of this strategy.He says supply chain problems caused by the Covid-19 pandemic brought "an invisible part of business and society" out into the light, and highlighted to the Government how vulnerable NZ is to global disruptions."The concern I have is we feel we've come out of Covid and people are kind of going' the supply chain's resolved.' ... What happened with Covid is the tide went out and we saw these rocks, they were exposed and we started to deal with those, but we dealt with them in what I would say were very unsophisticated ways. Now the tide's rising and everyone's forgotten about the rocks below the water," Christie says."if I was a doctor who was diagnosing the New Zealand supply chain as my patient I would have to say the diagnosis is that we are in serious, if not critical condition.""And perhaps staying with that human analogy and referring it to the supply chain, the heart is the beating production sector of New Zealand. And while that's performing well, I think it's actually unproductive and we've seen this multiple times through the Productivity Commission's reports. So our heart isn't beating as efficiently as it can. The arteries and veins are the networks that flow products and goods around, not just [around] New Zealand but the globe, [and] they are constrained, we've got cholesterol in there and high blood pressure," says Christie."We've got parts of our network where the blood doesn't flow correctly, so that's not getting to the extremities well, our nervous system, we're actually deaf, dumb and blind, we don't know where the problems are and where they're coming from so we just get smacked in the face and we're probably suffering from early onset dementia. We don't actually have the cognitive ability to learn from our mistakes and improve, so we continually make the same mistakes."However, he says all is not lost."We know lots of patients who are serious and in a critical condition. [But] if they get the right care they can come out the other end better, stronger and more resilient. And I honestly believe that's potentially the future for us in New Zealand and our supply chain."Given the investment needed, 30-year timeframes, regulatory settings and 360 degree thinking needed, there's a role for government to play, Christie adds. In the podcast he also talks about the need to change NZ's port structure, why NZ should have reserve stocks of critical imports, whether NZ should have a national shipping line, the role for coastal shipping and rail, why supply chain improvements really matter to small businesses, the push to decarbonise, and more."If we want to make a change we're going to have some tough conversations. We're going to have to change some of the settings," Christie says, adding this should always be for the greater good.*You can find all episodes of the Of Interest podcast here.

Electronic parts shortages coupled with inflation has been affecting the electronic industry globally. Chris Cain our guest for today's episode is a supply chain consultant and former VP at Keysight working on supply chain and supply chain products. Chris will share with us his 37 years of experience and strategies to overcome electronic part shortages. Watch this episode here Show Higlights: Chris Cain briefly describes what supply management is, and his role as a consultant. Chris explains what it means to tap into the “scale for the larger ecosystem” of electronic providers Find alternatives and make some design adjustments where is possible Look for parts that are very scalable like memory parts and FPGAs Modular approach or designing for modules may also allow designers to have some flexibility If you can't get the parts, you can't ship your working design–having an insight into what's coming in the supply chain could help designers in their decision making It pays to spend a little time keeping up with groups like IPC which does the groundwork of looking up the industry and what they think is coming Chris warns designers about silk-screened sand, he added “never pay, until you verify” Moving towards an open source model, Zach mentioned a recent article on All About Circuits which talks about companies transitioning their chip architectures to RISC-V to help them overcome some of these supply chain issues What is supply chain resilience? Fuel costs push up the cost of everything else it's related to and it's essentially an inflation driver Avoid buying three year supply of parts, it's smarter to focus on design flexibility and overall sourcing flexibility What are the challenges involved with raw materials supplies for assembly?

In this podcast, guest Noha Tohamy joins host Caroline Chumakov to discuss how chief supply chain officers (CSCOs) can use Gartner's Hype Cycle for Supply Chain Strategy, 2022 to make purposeful, informed investment decisions. We look into our recommended approach to choosing the right key capabilities to invest in, which is to balance risk and upside against the organization's long-term goals and desired outcomes. Per Gartner's Hype Cycle research, business capabilities follow a left-to-right progression based on their marketplace maturity: new and relatively unproven capabilities promise large potential benefits but rarely live up to the sky-high expectations. Known but underutilized capabilities may have untapped potential, or may simply fade into obscurity. Proven capabilities typically merit expanded scaling and adoption.

More About Dan Hooker: Dan is a global retail and consumer packaged goods executive with broad experience across diverse business environments and formats, leading traditional food retail operations and merchandising, as well as product development, consumer and category analytics, sourcing and procurement, global trading, national sales and ecommerce. Dan is an outstanding strategist and general manager, and he has led the successful startup of multiple diverse businesses. Known for and recognized as one of the world's leading authorities on retailers' proprietary brands, he has shaped clients' programs across four continents and eight classes of trade. His passion is in helping companies see their unique DNA and positioning and creating actionable marketing and sales strategies essential for their success. After earning a degree from Cornell University in Agribusiness and Marketing, Dan plunged headlong into retail joining Aldi Foods as a District Manager. In the early 1990's Wakefern/ShopRite was very concerned about Aldi's expansion east and Dan jumped at the opportunity to start a business, and moved to West Springfield, MA and opened the first Price Rite Store. Today there are over 70 Price Rite stores that generate over $1 Billion in annual revenue and they are a strategic growth driver for Wakefern. After spending two years at Arthur Andersen as a retail consultant Dan spent fourteen years at Daymon Worldwide working with manufacturers and retailers across the world. Dan's career at Daymon progressed rapidly, and In 2011 Dan was appointed to the Executive Leadership Team (ELT) as the Chief Supplier Officer (CSO). As the CSO Dan was responsible for Category Management and Analytics, Supplier Relationships, Global Sourcing and Procurement and ran Daymon's import and export businesses. As a member of the ELT Dan was instrumental in re-inventing Daymon from consulting/brokerage company to a broader retail services company. Dan left Daymon at the end of 2013 and joined Trilliant Food and Nutrition in January of 2014 as the Vice President of Sales for national accounts and ecommerce. For the last four years Dan has focused on the digital channel selling to ecommerce retailers and running multi-million-dollar businesses for Walmart.com and Jet.com.

In this podcast, guest Simon Bailey joins co-hosts Thomas O'Connor and Caroline Chumakov to discuss Predicts 2022: Supply Chain Strategy. With things changing so quickly, Gartner is exploring the medium-term future in order to help CSCOs make calculated risks based on our research.A key topic discussed is how, when it comes to driving transformation and business impact, CSCOs are recognizing the critical role of collaborative digital ecosystems. How, to achieve competitive success, organizations are bringing together competitors, governments, non-governmental organizations, academia and startups such that they can compete as an ecosystem rather than discrete, individual firms. We also explore the “Say-Do Gap.” Many organizations have made public commitments in areas including sustainability and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). However, some have yet to put solid plans in place to deliver these goals. Those organizations that are reporting progress toward their objectives and actively driving to close gaps with action are the ones that are seeing the benefits. This is a key driver behind two of our predictions: that by 2024, 70% of global organizations will report supply chain performance against corporate DEI objectives, and that by 2025, 90% of public sustainable packaging commitments won't be met due to reliance on plastics and single-use packaging.

In Episode 7 of The Healthcare Leadership Experience, Lisa is joined by Vincent Matozzo, Corporate Supply Chain & Strategic Sourcing Leader at Yale New Haven Health. Together, they explore the need to be intentional with your hospital supply chain strategy. As Vincent observes: ‘'The ability to be intentional comes from a great foundational data analytics strategy.'' Today's episode is sponsored by Invoice ROI™, the only patented purchased services and indirect spend technology to manage, monitor and benchmark line item details.  In this episode you'll hear: Why data analytics is mission-critical to the hospital supply chain, (and why siloed data doesn't drive continuous improvement outcomes).  The evolution of supply chain, from operating in silos to a supply network. The difference between Lean and Six Sigma principles. ‘'What gets measured gets done.'' How to manage supply chain strategic initiatives during a pandemic and why every health system must move out of category management, actively react to what's happening in the marketplace and then deliver. The value of a supply chain peer group (and the advantage of vicariously learning the negative examples). ‘'We all owe it ourselves to change the seven most expensive words in healthcare …‘that's the way we've always done it.' ‘' The importance of supply chain to the C Suite – and why the time is now for the supply chain to fill the margin gaps and support the financial sustainability of a hospital or health system. Why healthcare organizations need to adopt foundational approaches to intentional project and program management. Hint: it's about having and measuring the right tools and impact to continuously improve. The need for a strong performance improvement team and project management group in every health system. ‘'Organizations are great at building sandcastles … but come high tide and the next emergency… we do exactly the same thing, starting from the ground up.''
