Building a customer-centric supply chain
Business, Chris Catto-Smith, Published on 02/12/2015
» One of the bigger challenges I face in supply chain consulting is changing the attitude of decision-makers from being adversarial to collaborative in their relationships with trading partners and service providers.

This is fortunate in a way, because if business executives could figure out for themselves that collaboration can bring huge savings in total supply chain costs, I would be out of a job.

Developing sustainable logistics infrastructure
Business, Chris Catto-Smith, Published on 19/11/2014
» Thailand is the second-largest economy in Southeast Asia after Indonesia, but low efficiency in its logistics systems contributes to relatively high logistics costs in relation to GDP. This is in part a result of the industrial structure, geographical dispersal of industrial centres, widely spread population centres and logistics infrastructure overfocused on road transport. Successive Thai governments have all taken proactive measures to improve logistics costs in relation to GDP, but ongoing improvement in logistics efficiency is critical for the sustainable development of the economy.
