St. Paul, MN -- (SBWire) -- 08/14/2017 --John Maher, Vice President of Product Strategy for Synchrono, the leader in modern Demand-Driven Manufacturing and synchronization technology, is a well-respected supply chain thought leader and Supply Chain Executive Pros to Know. Recently Maher corroborated the findings of The Clear Peak Supply Chain Advisory Council survey.

The imperative for the C-Suite must be to embrace a data-driven culture and disruptive new technologies for driving the emerging connected – and highly visible - supply chain. Maher insists initiation to proven demand-driven methodologies and active management of corporate-culture change for many organizations is the only way to realize transformational value from supply-chain visibility technologies.

Synchrono works with leading lean manufacturing organizations to develop a strategy that focuses on enabling a data-driven culture and encompasses processes, technology, change management, organizational structure, a clear road map, and other key elements. They must establish and support a Center of Excellence around analytics that become the main change agent. There are significant risks in not implementing strategies based on new supply chain visibility technologies. The major ones include loss of market share, deteriorating customer service and reduced profit margins.
