Curtin University students lead the way in National Supply Chain Competition

Following Week 2 of the 2011 National Supply Chain Competition ‘The Fresh Connection’ students are the shock leaders from Curtin University.

Showing seasoned professionals from a long list of blue chip multinational companies a thing or two about supply chain management, these students are to be commended for their efforts thus far as they were also in the top five in week one.

Of the non-student teams it is still Team Thailand that leads the way with both Philip Morris and SCA Hygiene not far behind them. Meanwhile, the students from the University of Western Sydney must also be commended for their efforts in achieving top-5 status.

Competition in the coming weeks is sure to intensify as more than 170 supply chain professionals set their sights on the Signet National Supply Chain Competition Final that is to be held in Sydney on 24 May. This day will also double up as a symposium of supply chain professionals, with Dr John Gattorna providing the opening keynote address on the day.

For all those wanting to find out more about what all the fuss is about, this will be a great day to attend, network with like minded professionals, and hear a number of industry leaders share their insights.
