“Global Supply Chain Resiliency Council Names Award Winners” is locked Global Supply Chain Resiliency Council Names Award Winners

Bose, EMD Millipore, Linear Technology, University of Maryland and Western Digital Honored at First Annual Event and Awards

Milpitas, CA – March 3, 2015 The winners of awards for supply chain resilience and risk management excellence were honored by the Global Supply Chain Resiliency Council (GSCRC) at the Council’s annual event which took place on Wednesday, February 25th, 2015, at the Hyatt Regency in Santa Clara, California.

The GSCRC was formed to bring together supply chain risk management and resiliency practitioners with luminaries and thought leaders to advance the professional discipline through opportunities to collaborate, develop and share best practices, and be recognized for innovation and leadership. The awards program is one of the key elements of the GSCRC strategy to accelerate enterprise adoption of supply chain risk management and resiliency as a professional discipline and mission-critical business process.

“We launched the GSCRC to be that professional community or watering hole for our colleagues so that they would have their own place to connect and learn from each other,” said Bindiya Vakil, founder and CEO of Resilinc. “We believe that recognition of companies and individuals within that community will be critical to the success of our collective journey toward institutionalization of resiliency concepts and business practices within the enterprise.”

The awards program is designed to recognize organizations and individuals that serve as role models and leaders in driving supply chain resiliency strategy success within their company, supply chain network, and across industries. The awards committee considered nominations received from suppliers, customers and experts from the Council’s technical advisor, Resilinc. The five award categories and winners announced were as follows:

  • RESILIENT SUPPLY CHAIN PARTNER OF THE YEAR: Bose Corporation

This overall award was based on a number of criteria and input related to customer collaboration practices and culture, technology adoption, and overall breadth and maturity-level of processes in place, as well as the organization’s commitment to institutionalize best practices and demonstrate innovation and continuous improvement over time. Eric Dwinells, senior director of global supply chain management, and Michelle Dinsdale, global supply chain manager, accepted the award on behalf of Bose.

  • RESILIENT SUPPLY CHAIN TECHNOLOGY DRIVER OF THE YEAR: Western Digital

This award recognizes the company that is most advanced in terms of technology adoption, the use of technology to achieve customer-supplier collaboration, and the overall maturity-level of technology-enabled processes and best practices in place. In addition, the committee considered organizational culture as it relates to technology adoption and risk taking, as well as the organization’s commitment to leveraging innovation and driving continuous improvement over time. Rubik Babakanian, senior vice president and chief procurement officer, and Damian Flynn, supply chain ERM manger, accepted the award on behalf of WD.

  • RESILIENT SUPPLY CHAIN EDUCATOR OF THE YEAR AWARD: Professor Sandy Boyson, University of Maryland

This award recognizes the educator that best supports further development of university-level education programs focusing on supply chain operations and resiliency and is best preparing the next generation of supply chain risk management superstars with hands-on training using real life scenarios, tools and case studies. In addition to talent development, this award also recognizes educators that play an important role in cross-pollinating ideas and strategies between academia and the business community. Sandy Boyson is a research professor and co-director of the Supply Chain Management Center at the University of Maryland, Robert H. Smith School of Business.

  • RESILIENT SUPPLY CHAIN PROFESSIONAL OF THE YEAR: Bob Scott, Linear Technology

This award recognizes individual success in championing the importance of supply chain resiliency within one’s company and being a change agent. The individual’s efforts to advance the profession across the industry – by sharing best practices, successes and lessons learned, via active participation in industry events and media communication opportunities – was also a consideration in the selection process. Bob Scott is a director of business development at Linear Technology and accepted the award on behalf of himself and the company chief operating officer, Alex McCann.

  • RESILIENT SUPPLY CHAIN COLLALBORATOR OF THE YEAR: EMD Millipore

This award recognizes the supply chain partner that collaborates most effectively with customers for mutual benefit.
