SUMMARY:GOVOLOGY: Supply Chain Strategy Made Simple for Government Contractors
DESCRIPTION:Enter the code: 52VBOCR20 when you register! \nGovernment contracts are won on paper but delivered through the supply chain. For small contractors\, the difference between profitable growth and costly penalties often comes down to how well their supply chain is managed. Yet many GovCon firms still operate reactively—putting performance\, margins\, and growth opportunities at risk. \nThis webinar makes supply chain strategy simple and actionable for government contractors. You’ll learn the four pillars of a strong GovCon supply chain—alignment\, visibility\, resilience\, and scalability—and how to put them into practice right away. Topics include running a lightweight monthly SIOP review\, using supplier scorecards to strengthen performance\, applying PFEP (Plan for Every Part) to streamline materials\, and setting smarter inventory policies to free up cash. \nREGISTER HERE
