The purchasing and supply chain management teams of large restaurant chains are under tremendous pressures to: improve product margins amidst fluctuating food ingredient costs; ensure reliable and safe transport of goods through the complex supply chain; and even to meet consumer demand for more diverse menu options.
In most restaurant organizations, the procurement process requires improved technology capabilities to meet those challenges and gain a competitive edge.
Attendees of this webinar will hear how advanced e-sourcing technology is helping many of the top restaurant brands in the U.S. to improve strategic sourcing and supply chain operations across all key categories of spend – from food ingredients, to disposables and packaging, to kitchen and store equipment, and for complex transportation service requirements.
Hear how newer technology approaches can enhance your purchasing process, including:
- Securing capacity and service commitments from transportation carriers
- Tapping into new savings opportunities for mature categories or even commodities
- Collecting and analyzing more supplier data to obtain total value decisions
- Conducting rapid development and comparison of scenarios against stakeholder preferences
- Supporting supplier diversity and locally-sourced strategies
Case study examples will be shared, and a live Q&A with presenters will follow.
