Prep-Gen is an initiative to prepare the next generation of Supply Chain Leaders. The world has transformed with Covid-19 and the conventional thinking around supply chains is changing very fast. It is also true that the current generation of Supply Chain Leaders are finding the puzzles changing at every instant, whether be in Operations Planning, Manufacturing, Logistics, Procurement or even in the way information is bundled or dis-aggregated. The challenges of integration and that of dis-aggregation mounts and there is increased need for bringing in coordination across a range of stakeholders. The relationships are changing inside and outside the firms.
Prep-Gen is founded on the principles of Integrity, Honesty, Transparency, Trust and Humility. The effort is to create one single window where diverse nature of problem solving will be facilitated by experts, where an individual or a collective will be much better prepared to respond to the upcoming challenges; Supply Chain puzzles, individual and collective problems across a range of dimensions will be discussed at length and a fruitful solution derived jointly, sometimes through projects as well.
Individuals and firms are encouraged to touch base with Prep-Gen through the Contact Prep-Gen Page or though telephone or email. Individual and collective sessions will be held over the interactive platforms that are mutually beneficial.
Several problem solving areas of focus for firms and individuals include:
- Logistics Puzzles among a range of Modes, Miles (First, Mid, Last) and Milieu (that covers environment, assets and capabilities)
- Procurement: Sustainable Procurement, Project Management, New Supplier development and Improvement, Year on Year Cost Reduction, Organization and Metrics
- Power Value Chain: From Generation (conventional and renewable, PPAs) to Consumption (efficiency improvement)
- Integration of Supply Chains: Information management, optimization, horizontal collaboration
The range of industry segments will be from industrial (core and non core) to the logistics heavy businesses in E-Commerce to Vaccine Cold Chains. The major initiative with concentration now is developing an Integrated App for the Universal Immunization Programs.
