As many of you know, the Category Managers who contribute to Supply Excellence also create a quarterly report called SupplyWatch. The Q2 issue is posted and includes detailed category breakdowns for…

• Metals
• Plastics, Rubber & Raw Materials
• Transportation
• Electronics, Electrical & IT Hardware
• Paper & Packaging
• Services & Capital Goods, Construction & Engineering

This quarter’s feature article is on Working Capital Management and there’s also an in depth look at current macro-economic data.

Lots of great data, insights and analysis from a very experienced, savvy team. If you’d like to subscribe to the email list so you’re notified each quarter when the new issues goes up, you can sign up here.
