Bonus Workshop D
Value Mapping:
An Executive Planning Session

Complimentary for management teams of five or more — limited to 4 teams on a first-come, first-served basis

Monday, October 16 - 1:00pm-5:00PM


Session Leader: David Howells, Partner, Supply Chain Solutions - Product Collaboration, CSC

One of the key reasons to attend Design Anywhere, Manufacture Anywhere is to improve your collaborative product development process – which by definition involves gaining alignment among the people who will be sharing information. This pre-conference session will enhance your overall learning experience; it will set you up to derive maximum benefit from the rest of the program while preparing you for implementation back at your organization.

This exclusive session is designed for at least 4-5 senior managers from across the organization to come together in preparation for a Collaborative Product Commerce (CPC) initiative. The objective of the session is to leave with a working model for the integration and alignment of your company’s business and CPC technology strategies. You will also leave with a relationship model that links the company’s vision to business objectives, strategic imperatives and CPC initiatives.

The format includes breakouts and activities for each team with the following work flow:

  1. Situation Awareness
  2. Strategic Alignment and Integration - decompose key objectives
  3. High-level Economic Prioritization = determine the expected value returned to the company of the CPC investment, direct and indirect cost benefit
  4. Value Mapping - Map the trade-offs in a 4-square Economic Value vs. Strategic Competitiveness

Note: A pre-work assignment will be given to teams who register for this session. Recommended participants: VP Engineering, VP Operations or COO, VP Procurement, CIO, CFO, CEO
