A New Year is a time for new beginnings and it is the perfect time to learn from past experiences / mistakes. This is a follow up post from early December where I discussed the dilemma many companies face – they have a “closet” full of stuff (capable people, processes, tools, technology, etc.) but never seem to have anything to “wear”. This not only happens often, but I am willing to bet it happens close to always. Many of our companies have invested millions of dollars in infrastructure (people, process, technology) but have neglected to fully adopt (USE!) those investments. This results in going back to the “market” time and time again for something to “wear” when they have perfectly good “somethings” right under their nose. So, my suggestion was “Shop Your Closet”.

I will let you think about that and come up with an answer or you can contact me for the correct answer (and yes, there is a correct answer!). Long time readers will remember that we published some projections at the beginning of 2012 (here and here) and I will leave it up to you to test them. Those projections were primarily based on Marian Salzman’s work, stay tuned for the 2013 projections, but one of them is that traditional economies are going alternative. If that is true, what impact will that have on the Sourcing/Supply Chain communities?
