Develop the agility required to adapt your logistics and distribution networks

Yasir Rizvi, Regional Procurement Manager at Agthia Group PJSC, will share his views on how businesses can develop the agility needed to adapt logistics and distribution networks in today’s dynamic environment. Drawing from over 15 years of procurement and supply chain experience, he will discuss strategies to boost responsiveness, manage disruptions, and align operations with evolving customer needs. 

He will share his views on how process optimization, combined with the implementation of lean systems, can significantly enhance supply chain efficiency. By focusing on identifying and eliminating the seven types of waste—overproduction, waiting, transport, extra processing, inventory, motion, and defects—he emphasizes creating more value with fewer resources. He will also explore route map optimization strategies to improve logistics and distribution, ensuring timely deliveries and reduced operational costs while increasing overall agility and responsiveness in the supply chain.
