FACTORS CAUSING THE PERFECT STORM OF CHANGE People Places Technology The capacity for people to connect , share, learn and trade Is increasing exponentially both virtually and in real places through technology and rapid growth At 100 qubits a single quantum computer processor would, theoretically, be more powerful than all the supercomputers on the planet combined.
Rate of Change “When the rate of change outside exceeds the rate of change inside, the end is in sight” Jack Welch
Regardless of what life cycle companies are in I typically get asked by Senior Management very similar questions What will it take to improve the alignment of strategy and execution? What will it take to improve processes and systems in all areas? What will it take to improve the ability of employees to embrace change? How can we improve the process of coping with change in all departments? How can we eliminate the amount of change and the speed of change? What systems can I purchase to improve my capability to manage change? Do we need more complicated and detailed processes and systems to manage change?
THE CHALLENGE FOR MANUFACTURING COMPANIES IN THE 21ST CENTURY IS TO EMBRACE AND MANGE CHANGE IN ALL ITS FORMS: Volatility - this change is unexpected or unstable and may be of unknown duration, but it is not necessarily hard to understand. Uncertainty - despite a lack of information, the event's basic cause and effect are known. Change is possible but not a given. Complexity - The change has many interconnected parts and variables. Some information is available and is predictable, but the volume or nature of it can be overwhelming to process. Ambiguity - This is change where no precedent exists: you face "unknown unknowns."
AGILITY AND SPEED PREDICTION AND FORECASTING ARE BECOMING INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT AND ESSENTIALLY A WASTE OF TIME
In a VUCA world… Constant Change with Rapid Response Rapid Response Rapid Response through being Agile Agile Simple Processes Agilethrough Simple Processes
UNDERSTANDING WHERE TO LOOK IS IMPORTANT: Review and simplification of over complicated processes Review over complicated systems should begin, often driven by incorrect assumptions during implementing systems, Review redundant processing and checking the checker by developing responsibility requirements Review and eliminate redundant transactions in all areas Reduce cycle times and lead-times in all areas • Eliminate excess purchase order approvals steps • Eliminate review, quotes, lead time checks before placing purchase orders • Provide product lead time matrix's for the sales and order entry areas this will reduce lead time and eliminate checking the checkers • Utilize Available To Promise and Capable To Promise logic

Manage volatility with fast reaction times and technological solutions TIME AND TECHNOLOGY Volatility – can best be describe as an environment in continuous change and attempting to manage in a business environment of non-predictable trends and repeatable patterns equals volatility • Rapid change in parts availability • Rapid change in price • Rapid change in currency • Rapid geopolitical change • Rapid global customer expansion

Why should we… Only 9% of the fortune 500 companies that existed in 1955 are on the list today The average life span of an S&P 500 company has decreased from 67 to 15 years in the last century We need to shift from the traditional management by objective to management driven by purpose The relevance of supply chain management cannot be understated
