Conference Board of Canada’s Supply Chain Risk Management Forum to Feature QLogitek

Toronto (February 28, 2011) – QLogitek’s EVP and COO, Isa Qureshi, has been invited to participate as 1 of 15 speakers at the Conference Board of Canada’s Supply Chain Risk Management Forum. The event’s retail-centric session entitled Managing Retailer Supply Chain Risks will feature Mr. Qureshi alongside Philippe Richer, Deputy Director of Industry Canada. "This is an exciting opportunity for QLogitek to share lessons learned from managing supply chain processes for some of our key retail customers, in an effort to further substantiate the timeliness and benefit of supply chain collaboration initiatives," said Qureshi.

In response to the retail sector’s unique needs, Industry Canada partnered with the Retail Council of Canada in developing an industry analysis report (State of Retail: The Canadian Report 2010). Managing Retailer Supply Chain Risks will combine this leading edge report’s findings with QLogitek’s best-of-class customer implementation case studies, in order to educate attendees on the most important factors to assess and the most innovative and cost-effective methods to employ vis-à-vis supply chain management.

The Supply Chain Risk Management Forum is Canada’s premier one-day event for supply chain professionals interested in advancing their company’s strategy throughout highly developed value chains, while still protecting against increased risks. Attendees will hear how innovators are using their supply chain risk management expertise to improve organizational performance by streamlining and refining existing business processes. Attendees will also gain insight on best approaches to motivate colleagues, suppliers, and customers towards contributing to and helping to implement their risk management initiatives.
