We have been taught, as supply chain leaders, that over the last decade supply chain processes have improved costs, shortened cycle times, improved customer service and decreased inventory. Based on our recent research, we find that only 1% of process-based companies are making progress on both operating margins and inventory. Most organizations are stuck on their ability to drive improvements in operating margin and inventory cycles. MORE
