SUMMARY:Supply Chain Analytics for Decision-Making: From Data to Outcomes (Level 2)
DESCRIPTION:Given the importance of the supply chain to organizations across the globe\, businesses are looking for opportunities to make processes faster\, cheaper\, and easier as materials move from the point of origin to the point of consumption. Supply chains involve many different activities\, people and organizations\, which produce a vast amount of information. This overwhelming amount of data has to be processed and converted into forms that influence key decisions and lead to better results. Supply chain analytics uses data analytical tools to manage and improve supply chain functions such as demand planning\, order processing and inventory control\, and risk management. This workshop will build the capacity of supply chain practitioners and service providers in both the public and private sectors in Sub-Saharan Africa to use big data to support supply chain management decisions.This two-day workshop is for procurement and supply chain practitioners and professionals working for governmental and non-governmental entities\, supply chain faculty\, and students.\n\nWorkshop DetailsDates: 26–27 March 2026 \nRegistration Deadline: 23 March 2026 \nDelivery Mode: In-person (Accra) & Online (Zoom) \n\nWhy Attend?\nSupply chains generate massive amounts of data across procurement\, inventory\, logistics\, warehousing and risk management. This workshop equips participants with practical\, hands-on skills to convert data into insights that drive operational and strategic decisions. \n\n\nFor full details\, please click here

SUMMARY:2026 Supply Chain Research Summit
DESCRIPTION:CARISCA’s annual Supply Chain Research Summit is central to our goal of strengthening African supply chain capacity and advancing Africa’s supply chain research globally. \nOn July 6-8\, 2026\, CARISCA will host the sixth Annual Supply Chain Research Summit in Ghana. The 2025 summit\, held in Lagos\, Nigeria\, attracted approximately 350 participants from 17 countries\, 87 institutions\, and 38 higher education institutions worldwide\, featuring more than 81 presentations. \nIn 2026\, we are moving the summit back to Ghana\, to welcome and accommodate even more supply chain scholars\, students\, professionals and decision makers to one of Africa’s emerging economies. As in previous summits\, the 2026 Summit will be a hybrid event\, to be held in person\, and virtually via Zoom. \nThe 2026 summit is envisioned to take a deeper look at how artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are transforming supply chains and organizations across the continent. \nVisit the Summit website: summit2026.carisca.org
