Supply Chain

Specification Management

Description:

When it comes to manufacturing, the only constant is change. Whether it's global unrest and economic instability or supply chain distributions and a changing workforce, companies that manufacture products and packaging are being challenged to do more. If you don't have a solid data foundation, these challenges can keep your company from meeting its strategic goals and standing apart from the competition.

In this webinar, Specright Founder & CEO Matthew Wright will explain the benefits of taking a spec-first approach to your data strategy. As Matthew states, "If you get the spec right, the rest follows."

Paul Gray, Director of Continuous Improvement, Central Garden & Pet, will join the conversation to share CGP's journey with Specright on reimagining their supply chain and meeting their business objectives. You'll hear anecdotes, proof points, and industry best practices.
