Supply Chain Digitization: 4-Step Approach

Step 1. Input your list of existing and future supply chain digital initiatives

For each initiative targeting supply chain digitization, include the definition as well as workstreams that you would like to attribute to the initiative.

Step 2. Self-assess for value and risk and/or deploy assessments across the business

Diagnosing key stakeholders’ needs and building consensus is key to develop an effective roadmap for supply chain digitization.

Step 3. Track key stakeholders' participation in the prioritization assessment

If deploying the prioritization assessment to key stakeholders within the business, regularly review their progress. The tool helps you to send reminder emails to respondents.

Step 4: Generate a custom supply chain digital roadmap to see initiatives prioritized

Review your digital initiative list prioritized by value and risk ranking. Also, download a three-year roadmap for supply chain digitization based on your assessment results.
