Procurement Law: 2010 Primer

Presenter: Paul Emmanuelli, Procurement Counsel
Thursday, February 25, 2010 (Date Changed)
12:00 pm – 1:30 pm ET

To help identify emerging legal trends and develop long-term procurement strategies, The Procurement Office™ research group tracks reported decisions from every trial and appeal level court in Canada. This early warning system identifies emerging legal issues well before they reach the Supreme Court of Canada and supplements these findings with the latest determinations from the Canadian International Trade Tribunal.

This webinar will highlight the latest case law developments dealing with tender call disclaimers, disclosure duties, tender compliance, fair process and bid shopping.

Collaborative Planning, Forecasting, and Replenishment in the Global Supply Chain

Presenter: Ron K. Ireland, Principal Consultant, Oliver Wight Americas
Tuesday, March 30, 2010
12:00 pm – 1:30 pm ET

CPFR – Collaborative Planning Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR) has been an industry standard and guideline for 12 years and is quickly being adopted in many different types of supply chains, with the primary focus of improving Demand and Supply Forecasting accuracy and the sharing of these forecasts with trading partners. Our presenter, Ron Ireland, was one of the visionaries in the creation of CPFR when he helped to develop the Wal-Mart Supply Chain.

In this webinar, Ron will explain how, as the economy recovers, CPFR can be used to link trading partners in the extended supply chain in order to improve on forecast accuracy as well as improve on overall supply chain partnerships.
