Practical Aspects of Building an Efficient Strategy.

At MSF Médecins Sans Frontières, it is critical to set an integrated, contextualized end-to-end supply chain to support operational needs, both for regular and emergency operations. Moreover, the complexity of operations requires a hyper-agile supply chain to respond to the various local constraints such as conflicts areas, continuous displacements, and emergency responses.
How can we build an efficient Supply Chain Strategy including all contextual constraints so that this key element supports medical operations?
Julie will introduce us to Supply Chain Strategy at MSF and the practical aspect of building an efficient Strategy.
