Continued...

Start here https://clck.ru/3UnTgQ

Closed club format: 3-hour SCM Marathon, confidential exchange of experience, no public publications.

6 thematic discussions of 40 minutes each: roadmaps, results of monthly meetings, planned initiatives, discussion with 4-6 current managers in the areas of the SCM.

What we'll discuss:

1. Discussion "SCM 2026: From Isolation to Systematics – How to Integrate the Supply Chain into a Single Loop"

SCM leaders will share before-and-after case studies on functional intersections, inventory management, and regulatory matters. They will discuss how to transform disparate processes into a manageable system where metrics, SLAs, and early triggers drive margins.

2. Discussion "Procurement 2026: Proven Solutions from a Closed-Loop Directors' Dialogue"

Procurement in 2026 is a source of business resilience. In the face of lengthening logistics spans, regulatory barriers, and margin pressure, success is determined by data quality, process speed, and cross-functional synchronization. Procurement directors will share insights from the monthly closed-door meetings of the SCM Procurement Leaders' Council (May–August 2026).

3. Discussion "Transportation in Turbulence: Regulation, Resources, Solutions"

In 40 minutes, transportation directors from manufacturing, trading, and distribution companies will discuss how to adapt transportation functions to new realities: mandatory electronic freight forwarding (ETR) and the register of freight forwarders effective September 1, rate volatility, and the shortage of reliable carriers. Participants will share proven best practices: how to select partners amid regulatory changes, establish tariff monitoring without unnecessary details, automate processes without patchwork solutions, and communicate with finance in the language of numbers.

4. Discussion "Operations in Turbulent Conditions: Cost Reduction, End-to-End Planning, and AI Analytics"

The discussion will focus on the issues addressed by operational directors from manufacturing, retail, and distribution at the summer 2026 meetings of the Council of Operational Heads of the SCM Pro. How can logistics and warehouse processes be optimized in the face of declining demand? How can we build a unified S&OP framework where finance, commerce, and operations speak the same language? Where does AI already deliver measurable ROI, and where does it remain an "analyst's toy"?

Speakers will present before-and-after case studies, share performance metrics, and demonstrate how cross-industry collaboration helps reduce order costs without sacrificing service quality.

5. Discussion "Warehousing 2026: From Challenges to Measurable Results"

The warehouse is a value-creation hub in the supply chain. On the expert panel, warehousing directors from manufacturing, retail, and distribution companies will discuss cases of transforming warehouse operations, calculating the before-and-after economics.

6. Discussion "Planning in an Unstable Environment: From Insights to Measurable Results"

How can we transform planning from "forecasts and reports" into the center of adaptive decisions? Based on materials from the summer meetings of the the SCM Pro Planning Council, we will examine practical cases of IBP/S&OP implementation in Russian companies.
