Episode 95 - the last Digital Supply Chain podcast episode of 2020

Quick announcement - to help serve you the podcast audience better I have created a chat room on my TomRaftery.com website. Just go to TomRaftery.com/dsc and in there you can leave suggestions for topics for upcoming podcasts, speaker suggestions, feedback on episodes, or create your own topic for people to chat about

The podcast now has 95 back episodes including:

• An episode with Coca Cola’s Jeff Markey talking about their project to roll out full e2e visibility across their entire global supply chain (included the expression responding at the speed of need!)
• Industry 4.0 case studies where I interviewed SAP customers such as Weidmüller’s Patrick-Benjamin Bok, and Index-Werke’s Katharina Piesche where they discussed their successful Industry 4.0 projects
• Fleet Management conversations with Geotab’s Colin Sutherland, Chris Wolfe from PowerFleet and Amply Power’s Simon Lonsdale
• Planning disruption conversations and how to respond with Lorcan Sheehan from PerformanSC, Dan Bhide and Odell Smith from MSCG, and Isabelle Leclerc from Cascades - one of the most heavily disrupted industries
• Conversations with startups such as Cogniac, Rheaply, Ivaldi, and Christian Boos on how startups can engage with SAP
• The importance of D&I in supply chain with Miguel Castro
• Inventory Management with Deborah Dull
• Analytics and prescriptive analytics with Dr Heather Krieger from Savi, and David Vallejo from SAP
• Life with David Soos from Signify
• Robotics in SC with Lior Elazary from inVia Robotics
• Circular economy with Stephen Jamieson
• A special two part podcast on the sc challenges of vaccinating 8bn people - with Alina Gross and Chris Roediger
• And sustainability in sc showed up in many podcasts including podcasts with Sheri Hinesh (aka Supplychain queen), Hans Thalbauer, Thomas Ohnemus, Toby Croucher, and the topic cropped up in many of the other podcasts because it aligns well with sc optimisation
