Chandigarh Management Association (CMA) organised

today a seminar here today on the subject “Seven

Principles of Supply Chain Management” at ICFAI Business

School, S.A.S.Nagar as a part of its monthly lecture series.

The seminar was jointly organised with British Library.

The key speaker on the seminar was Dr. Cedwyn Fernandes

of Middlesex University Dubai. Speaking on the occasion,

Dr. Cedwyn said that businesses are now examining every

area of their supply chain to reduce costs, reduce waste

and shorten time span to reach to the final customers. He

said, Companies that want to get ahead of the curve and

stay there need to begin thinking how to develop an

approach to sourcing and supplying the goods that factors

this new reality into their plans. He said, in India the

biggest hurdle in making the supply chain effective is the

poor and uncertain logistics for movement of the goods.

Dr. Cedwyn further said that Environmental issues are now

becoming important to the public and the companies arenow looking as to how they can make their supply chains

greener. Elaborating, he said that packaging materials are

used every day in almost every company that
