Where is the Gap?
4 Steps to Bridge the Gap
Step 1: Get your Data
- Individuals must be self-empowered (meaning no IT involvement) to identify what they would like "watched" within their prescribed level of tolerance, and how/when they are to be notified.
- Unexpected events are not all created equal. The same event could be benign one day and critically urgent the next.

Step 3: Empower People to Collaborate
Step 4: Merge Supply Chain Planning and Execution
