Past event: Supply Chain & Procurement in Resources Australia Conference

Australia's mining, oil & gas (resources) sectors continue to respond to declining commodity prices in a high cost environment with companies striving to reduce capital investment and find new, innovative ways to remain competitive.  

The supply chain responds through a shift towards cost containment and a quest to seek new opportunities in innovation and competitiveness.

Supply Chain & Procurement in Resources Australia is the first of its kind in Australia and the ONLY event addressing the supply chain & procurement challenges unique to the resources sector. This 2-day event will showcase 25+ speakers sharing best practice strategies, industry-specific use cases and market-leading strategies shaping the current supply chain & procurement function.

Companies across Australia remain focused on delivering long term projects with a short-term focus on restructuring their supply chain infrastructure to respond to cost-cutting measures. Attend this event to hear how supply chain & procurement industry leaders are streamlining processes, increasing efficiency and achieving business value.

This event is the only platform you'll learn about the key trends and best practices to build the Australian resources supply chain of the future. Over two days, attendees will network, discuss and hear about the cutting-edge strategies shaping the current market.
