New Thinking in Logistics and Supply Chain

“Omera’s insight and expertise in the areas of Supply Chain Management and Supply Chain Risk were a valuable resource. Her style of supervision was as inspiring as it was empowering, and her engagement in the research during and after the thesis was very positive. Working with her on this project was a rewarding experience both professionally and personally. Her lectures were very engaging and her ability to enrich such a theoretical course with so much interactivity is a characteristic I highly appreciate.”

How can I help your organisation?

Supply Chain Risk Management

Managing supply chain risks, rather than simply managing supply chains, is a more accurate phrase in today’s highly turbulent and uncertain world. Recognising and mitigating the impact of risks to the supply chain is significant to ensuring business success. Omera assists companies in thinking both strategically and operationally to proactively manage risks in the supply chain.

Route to zero carbon

Climate change affects us all. And in the battle against it and the climbing temperatures and rising sea levels that accompany climate change supply chain organizations are in the front line. Omera advises organizations on the route to zero carbon. What motivates them, the barriers that they face, and crucially the skills that will be required in order to overcome those barriers.

 

 

Cyber Risk and Resilience

With recent and unprecedented global cyber attacks and further imminent threats, Omera’s work offers an explanation of why current cyber risk assessment methods are insufficient and provides an agenda for both academia and practice.

Emerging Technologies

The development of new technologies such as 3D printing and AI are causing significant disruption to well-established supply chain models and mind-sets. Omera inspires you to view these disruptive technologies as opportunities for improving supply chain performance.

Product Design and Supply Chain Alignment

Process alignment in the value chain enables companies to be more responsive and adaptable to changes both on the supply and demand side. Omera guides organisations through simple frameworks and approaches to improve process alignment and enables them to recognise that the ‘supply chain begins on the drawing board’.

Sustainability and Environment

An ever-increasing concern for the plant and in particular global warming presents a growing area for attention. Omera’s work sets out how the integration of product design can yield significant sustainability and environmental, and thinking beyond triple – bottom line benefits.

Adaptability

Volatility, sustainability and complexity are all putting enormous strains on the supply chain. Omera explores how business leaders can mitigate risks, use real-time information to embrace consumer demands and create a more resilient supply chain.

Responsiveness and Customisation

Improved responsiveness and higher levels of customisation are pre-requisites for success in a volatile market place. Omera has helped many companies to improve their end-to-end supply chain management and achieve higher levels of performance and success.
