“What keeps the OEMs & Tiers up at night?
Verify surveyed the A&D Industry and found out.” 
OC Chapter meeting in Irvine on December 6
Verify, the pioneer and world’s leading provider of Supplier Performance Management (SPM) solutions, will be publishing a white paper on the current state and future challenges facing the A&D supply chain and previewing it at the OC A&D Forum Dec 6th meeting.
Given that Verify partners with over 400 A&D customers and provides support solutions at over 7,000 supplier locations in 53 countries, the white paper will be based on extensive surveys and interviews across every level of the global supply chain.
The Verify Team distilled the white paper to several mission critical topics:
• How do customers and suppliers truly rate their relationship with each other?
• Cybersecurity – beyond IT, the vast majority of the Defense Supply-Chain is non-compliant. What level of access to Operational, Quality and Compliance data will the Gov’t mandate? Will the OEMs police performance and compliance of the Tiers or will the Gov’t want direct access?
• Which competencies should the Supply-Chain invest in over the next 3-years? Will current competences satisfy future obligations?
• Which of the current challenges facing the supply chain has the most negative impact on operational performance?
Please join us in Irvine on Thursday, December 6, 7:30–9:00am, when Verify President, Alan McIntosh will be reviewing data and conclusion from the white paper and Verify will field a panel of subject matter experts to address, answer questions, and find solutions on some of the significant challenges facing our industry over the next 3+ years.
The meeting is free for members & $40 for non-members ($30 Early Bird until November 29). Non-members may guest twice for free. Click here to register to attend the meeting.
