Is the supply chain ready to deliver at pace?
22 May 2024
Utility Week Forum Keynote Stage
At a time when utilities need to deliver infrastructure projects on a huge scale, they find themselves competing in a global market for skills and materials. Gas, power and water companies need to provide transparency to the supply chain and support their investment in skills and technology to deliver at pace. A race to the bottom on cost is no longer an option, with the responsibility to deliver social value, carbon neutral infrastructure and environmental impact incumbent at every level of the supply chain.
Hear experts outline how they are adapting procurement methods, engaging with the supply chain and finding new ways of working to minimise blockers to delivery.
