DHL’s Global Connectedness Index – A Must Read For Supply Chain and Procurement Professionals
JASON BUSCH - December 2, 2014 6:19 AM | Categories: Analysis, Procurement, Purchasing and Sourcing, Purchasing Process, Sourcing, Supply Chain
While some of the more advanced procurement organizations that we know and work with have reached the “devolution” phase of maturity – i.e., centralized support and enablement but with localized, decentralized execution and capability – the general linkages of global supply chains is a trend that is likely not to reverse itself. Even as companies localize supply chains rather than center global sourcing efforts from an export perspective, interconnectivity between countries and organizations is rising, not falling. For companies that are increasingly “sourcing locally,” the underlying sources of supply for lower-tier materials, semi-finished goods and ingredients are becoming more reliant on global sources. With this in mind, DHL’s academic, yet outstanding Global Connectedness Index should be required reading for those with any sort of global orientation or interest within supply chain and procurement.
