Women in Logistics Silver Sponsor Sharyn Grant

SCLAA National Partner LSC Solutions Pty Ltd proudly supported Women In Logistics (WIL) – The Final Frontier held at the MCG on Friday, 29 April 2016. The event was attended by over 200 people. LSC Solutions Pty Ltd’s Managing Director and Supply Chain Value Creator, Sharyn Grant described the event as “very educational and informative”.

A highlight of the event included Amanda Blesing’s speech Confidence v’s Competence: which is more useful when it comes to getting ahead? Her presentation provided considerable evidence that a focus on competence, rather than perceived confidence, is one of the things holding a lot of women back from pursuing their goals. Additionally, a lack of strategy around career progress is preventing women from progressing to senior positions and participating on boards.

Amanda’s presentation provided statistics showing that companies with women in senior positions and on boards are more successful.

Other speeches included: •

Tracey Waring - Authentic Leadership: What does it truly mean to be an authentic and influential leader and lead an authentic life?

•

Christine Tolson - Fearless Leadership: Change Leadership is about People not Organisations

•

Jody Freestone - Managing Change in a 40 Year Family Business

Sharon felt that “all speeches provided significant inspiration for both women and men at the event, to review how they are approaching their career and professional life, and the value that women have contributed to the supply chain and logistics industry”.

It is her belief that, “women in supply chain and logistics need to increase confidence substantially, be authentic and fearless leaders, communicate change requirements clearly and regularly, and engage effectively and compassionately with all people and levels within an organisation.

“Possibly the biggest learning for women in supply chain and logistics is the need to increase confidence. When identifying the most common traits of highly confident

women, it could be inferred that the most successful women in supply chain and logistics are those that: •

live in the present and keep their eye on the prize

•

are assertive and ask empowering questions

•

consider themselves important comfortable being themselves

•

trust themselves, their intuition and keep their expectations high

•

focus on their strengths, admit their flaws and know when to ask for help

•

understand that things constantly change, and know when and how to reposition herself (source: summary of multiple internet search results).”

and

are

Sharyn recalls when first pursuing her career in human resource management, it was her first class in logistics and operations management that gave her an OMG moment. “I first wanted to help people, but when I was introduced to powerful analyses and strategies that can help entire companies and their supply chains, I knew instantly that was what I wanted to do.”

Sharyn has since also completed her Logistics Masters and is now half way through her Doctorate in Supply Chain Performance Management. “I see the Women In Logistics initiative being the ideal platform to raise awareness for women regarding the different career opportunities available to them in supply chain and logistics.”

Chairman’s report The SCLAA’s Women in Logistics Half Day Event at the MCG in Melbourne in late April was a resounding success with lots of positive feedback from attendees.

We have a feature article on the event in this newsletter.

In the last year the SCLAA has added many member benefits, including World First fee free foreign exchange transactions close to the spot rate, saving considerably on the bank rates.

I recently did a trade in US Dollars to buy inventory and saved $A7, 000 on the bank rates / fees. Members can trade almost 6 x 24, to take advantage of foreign exchange rates / spikes, that are live from around 8am Mondays through to 10am on Saturday, depending on daylight saving time. Also recently added was free access to Inside Retail and Inside FMCG magazines to complement our MHD Magazine and Transport & Logistics News complimentary subscriptions. Many members’ either directly or indirectly interact with Retailers or Fast Moving Consumer Goods companies / suppliers, so these publications will provide a valuable resource as to what is happening in the industry. Lastly, our up to 5c/litre off Caltex and Woolworths / Caltex fuel offer has been popular and have saved many members, their families and the Companies of members on fuel costs. Its available at over 2000 stations across Australia.

Again, there has been high profile news of a fleet of chicken delivery trucks being allegedly tampered with, so they can exceed the 100 km/h truck speed limit. You have to wonder why the Directors of this well-known operation take these personal risks which could see them either jailed or fined or both, let alone the impact on brand reputation.

The SCLAA is supporting the CeMAT Convention and Expo in Melbourne from July 12 – 14 and we will have a stand there.

CeMAT will provide you with a platform to access the latest industry innovations, the opportunity to exchange ideas and gain insights on the warehouse and supply chain of the future.

The CeMAT Knowledge Theatre has a new structure to provide a significant learning opportunity for attendees.

There has never been a more exciting time to you know...

Supply chain is business and all businesses are technology businesses. There aren’t proprietary supply chain software solutions readily available so what concepts should be driving the design of supply chain systems.

A key question is what technologies will be right of entry rather than competitive advantage in the future? What data driven value added services will our customers be prepared to pay for? What related knowledge and skills will our future supply chain managers require?

Effective supply chain management is more likely to occur if supply chain integration can be achieved. The mechanisms to achieve integration are structural (supply chain and logistics network design), systematic (Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP)) and process based (decision making and information flows). Most published analysis of supply chain management decision making strategy suggests that we must source and use both structured and unstructured sources of information to respond in a timely manner to environmental and system changes and reduce lead times; to work our assets to achieve cost and performance outcomes.

While we are comfortable with the structured sources (materials, forecasts, inventories) what sorts of supply chain issues should C-level executives be discussing and what sorts of unstructured data should inform those discussions? Some examples could be: Strategic Issue

Example(s) of Unstructured Source of Data Issue

Supply Chain Risk

The potential for a hot war in the middle east

The future of encryption

Apple’s fight with the US Department of Justice

The potential of encryption

The role of blockchain in all commerce

Demand and Supply Chain Risk

oil price war, China – one belt one road

Economic Moat

APIs and the composable enterprise, big data

Demand and Returns on Capital

Negative interest rates and their consequences including potential restrictions on ownership of gold, real estate & cash to stimulate spending

At the operations level, the raison d’etre of every good supply chain manager is adding value to our customers’ supply chains.

While procurement focuses on upstream (suppliers) and logistics focuses on downstream (customers) the supply chain manager focuses on ensuring that the supply and demand information required by both is timely and accurate and relevant to the decision making processes that they employ.

If the decision making processes they employ are not based on predictive analytics and business prototyping designed to speed up decision making and reduce lead times then are they managing or merely supervising?

If we seek the courage to change the things we can, the serenity to accept the things we can’t and the wisdom to know the difference then what should we be getting excited about?

Perhaps it is being accountable for short term results in a manner that positions ourselves (technologically) for blue sky concepts that have long term potential.

Biosecurity with Australian FMCG Supply Chains Mark Skipper, Chairman Supply Chain & Logistics Association of Australia (SCLAA) One of Australia’s best competitive advantages is our reputation as a producer of world class produce, our diverse agricultural economy, closeness to key Asian markets and the tourism our pristine and unique environments create.

Biosecurity or the lack of it, is an obvious threat. The impact of pests and disease can be devastating to agriculture, communities, regions, the economy, our reputation and our national livelihood.

An increasing proportion of Australia’s Fast Moving Consumer Goods are imported so there is increasing emphasis on suppliers, their vendors, shipping operators, ports and the Australian Government to protect our biosecurity.

The Government has developed activities in key overseas risks area that are focused on reducing risks through intelligence, surveillance, looking a shipping ballast tank issues and undertaking audits and verification processes.

At the borders, there are multi-modal programs to enhance compliance, develop new standards to address new threats and increased inspections of passengers, luggage and cargo.

With one FMCG company getting over 2,000 forty foot mostly Asian containers into its Australian DC a year, the quantum of the scale of potential threats to manage is considerable.

What is the solution?

Do we need to go back to the old days where planes were sprayed on arrival to Australian airports from certain overseas countries?

Will all sea and air containers needs to go through some Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service (AQIS) process on arrival.

Perhaps a process where they x-ray containers looking for contraband, could also incorporate gassing the containers and killing any pests.

What about carry on baggage on places, cruise ship luggage and ships / ballast not to mention container ships? Pests can also survive on the hull of ships.

The ABS valued Australia’s Primary Production sector at $54 billion for the financial year ended June 2015, so we have a lot to protect.

The Australian Government is currently looking at ways it can enhance biosecurity and is taking submissions until July 7, 2016. You can make an online or written submission

In 2014 South American Fire Ants were found near the container terminal at Port Botany in Sydney.

The Fire Ant has a painful sting that impacts humans, pets and livestock. In South America they spend $7 billion a year to control them and there are around 80 deaths a year. Colonies of Fire Ants, have been found in tucked away areas inside shipping containers, which are not visible to the human eye.

Straight Talking

David Doherty OAM At 5AM the struggle for the baby is lost.

David Doherty OAM is a past President and Life Member of the SCLAA and a highly regarded logistician. Send your Straight Talk feedback and comments to davdoh1@optusnet.com.au

A few months back I went into a private hospital to get a coronary artery cleaned out. I spent just twenty-one hours in the hospital (by the way the cost totalled an amazing $26000, and although my private health insurer paid it all, you have to wonder how it could cost that much) and was very grateful for the skill and care of the professionals in the hospital.

This experience caused me to think about a Straight Talk column I wrote back in 2007. With your indulgence I am repeating the text of that earlier column as a reminder of the excellence of people working their magic in our hospitals----

“When it’s life and death.

My youngest son, Ross, became very ill recently. Although being treated by his local Doctor he deteriorated to the point where at 10PM on Tuesday it was clear he needed hospital treatment.

My wife and I accompanied him to the emergency department at Austin Hospital, a major Melbourne public hospital.

door into the treatment area. Ross still waited in unimaginable pain and distress. Occasionally someone went to the reception counter to ask why they had not yet received treatment. Some were belligerent. Some exhausted and emotional. Eventually some gave up and left.

At 3 AM my wife went to the Reception counter to ask how long it might be before Ross would be invited through the door. The Receptionist explained there had been a number of emergency patients brought in by Ambulances through an area on the other side of the emergency department and not visible to us. Of course they received priority.

Ross was taken in at 4 AM. I went with him. The treatment cubicles were full.

Perhaps as many as fifty patients young and old alike. Frail and frightened people too. Many Nurses Doctors. Orderlies and such hustling, consulting, comforting, under stress.

Ross is seen by a young Doctor. She is methodical, precise, yet caring.

About twenty-five people in various stages of distress sat in the area. Most were accompanied by a support person.

A sizeable community of desperate people all wanting to be treated next.

A commotion elsewhere sends staff racing to the point. News spreads like wildfire. A baby has been brought in by Ambulance. It’s life or death. Doctors and Nurses yell for equipment and assistance. It comes immediately. No hint of hesitation. This is team work at its very best. Special products are needed.

They appear like magic. No excuses! A Doctor with special skills is summoned.

He races in breathless. Nothing is spared.

Everything needed is available.

Time passed slowly. At 1.00 AM only two people had made it through the

Frenzied activity but managed and skilled. Everyone is locked in the battle.

Armed with a referral and diagnostic information from his local Doctor Ross was assessed by a Triage Sister and classified as a priority case, but told to sit in the patient waiting room.

SCLAA Newsletter June 2016

The parents are distraught. They need and get support. The staff are shaken.

Other patients shed tears. Ross and I share a hand clasp and some tears too.

Doctors and Nurses have no respite.

They turn their expertise to other patients.

Equipment, medications, supplies are needed at each treatment cubicle. Whatever is needed seems to be immediately available.

Ross needs surgery. He will be admitted.

Antibiotics and massive painkillers are administered by drip. He is stable now.

It is after 7.00AM. My wife and I walk slowly through the waiting area where we spent much of the night. More than fifteen people sit waiting for assessment and treatment. They are mostly new arrivals since I went through the door with Ross.

Two nurses who fought valiantly in the battle for the baby chat quietly as they leave the hospital. Another shift. Another set of human life and death battles.

Tomorrow will be the same.

They and their colleagues are real heroes.

In the car park it occurs to me how all needed supplies, equipment and such were available at call. No delay. No excuses. No delivery failures. No out of stocks! The Supply Chain and Logistics people had done their job too. Effective Supply Chains on show and evident.

As I turn the car towards home, sleepless, but pleased my son is being cared for by good people; I send a silent word of thanks to everyone in the hospital including people in my own profession who did not let anyone down during the long night.

They too will do it again tomorrow’

Well done guys!”

Spare a thought for the heroes in our Hospitals and health care system who fight the life and death battles every day!

Division Report Yit Ming Ng Life, the Universe and Everything IT. The weather may be gloomy and the traffic may be at a standstill but that didn’t stop the cheerful conversation and the free flowing exchange of information that occurred at the Melbourne Graduate House last March 10.

SCLAA’s members and students alike were treated to information regarding Matrix 42, a software that holds the key in integrating the workspace across multiple devices.

Various elements of the IT system such as security, compliance, and license management will be facilitated by Matrix 42 from the moment the user joins the organisation until the time of departure.

The users will then have a personalised workspace seamlessly spread across all of their personal devices.

While Matrix 42 may not provide the answer to life, the universe, and everything, it surely makes it easier for you to discover it by managing your IT workspace.

Their speaker Michael Alf eagerly shared its possible applications as a tool for supply chain professionals.

He began with the acknowledgment of the pervasiveness of technology in everyday life.

Each individual owns multiple personal devices: a combination of mobile phones, tablets, laptops, personal computers, and burgeoning wearable technology apart from the devices that are used for work. Each device is then served by a multitude of software - all of which make for quite a clutter.

Together with the emerging trend of bringing your own device to work, Michael presented Matrix 42 as a tool to integrate all personal devices by acting as an interface to company and personal software.

Empowering communication in logistics and supply chain Communication is central to the success of every supply chain and logistics company. In an industry that depends on punctual deliveries and swift, accurate information at every stage of the supply chain, a missed message can mean mistakes, delays, or worse.

Having the right communications platform to underpin the fast-paced and complex environment of your supply chain is critical. Addressing the needs of mobile workers is also fundamental with employees spread remotely across warehouses, factory floors, on the road, working from home, at ports, in trucks and delivery centres across vast locations. Employees with business communications and capabilities available on their mobile devices become mobile workers who are better connected and responsive, wherever they are.

SCAA is a trusted IT&T partner with more than two decades experience in the wireless and telecommunications market. We work with supply chain and logistics companies such as Avnet, a leading distributor of IT solutions in more than 70 countries. Avnet has a sophisticated warehousing and logistics infrastructure, and a 24x7 hotline, providing everything from technical pre-sales support to ongoing help desk support. SCAA transformed Avnet’s communications environment with a ShoreTel Unified Communications (UC) and Enterprise Contact Center (ECC) solution.

SCAA was integral to advising and implementing the right communications platform to enhance internal collaboration, reduce call costs, simplify administration, and improve Avnet’s responsiveness to its customers.

Avnet’s ShoreTel UC solution was deployed as a fully redundant system across its offices in Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne and Brisbane, and for remote staff in Perth and Adelaide. Avnet has also incorporated cordless DECT handsets with ShoreTel extensions in its main warehouse in Sydney, giving staff the ability to easily stay in contact regardless of their location in the warehouse.

Avnet has also integrated ShoreTel UC with its Outlook email system, so that staff can access their voicemail via their inbox, and the ShoreTel Communicator desktop client is used extensively across the organisation for click to call, instant messaging and managing status/availability.

“We have been very happy with the support we are getting from SCAA. If we call the hotline number, straight away we get a call back from them – whether it’s for an upgrade to the system, or we need technical help or a license key,” said Adam Ahmed, IT Systems Administrator, Avnet.

Supply Chain & Logistics Future Leaders – Achieving a Performance Edge In 2015, the Queensland Supply Chain & Logistics Awards recognised three outstanding performers with the Future Leaders Award. As acknowledgment for their hard work and talent, joint winners Samantha Lowry, Senior Procurement Advisor, Department of Education & Training and Danielle Brennan, Category Specialist, Stanwell Corporation were awarded with an opportunity to partake in Leadership Management Australia’s ‘The Performance Edge’ course. Joining them was High Commendation Future Leader recipient Nathan Barrett, National Health and Safety Manager for Young Guns Container Crew.

With their own goals, expectations and aspirations, all entered ‘The Performance Edge’ as upcoming leaders, but all left with a greater sense of their own potential and actions for the future.

For High Commendation winner Nathan Barrett, the opportunities ‘The Performance Edge’ could offer were numerous, ‘I wanted to challenge myself to become a leader within my business and to further challenge ourselves as a Health & Safety team to lead the way in all aspects of our business,’ Nathan explains.

Nathan’s dedication to rise to a challenge took him into ‘The Performance Edge’ course, a program traditionally only awarded to Future Leaders winners. ‘I didn’t really know what to expect, I entered the course with an open mind as to the opportunities that would be afforded,’ Nathan says.

‘I was very poor at documenting goals and pulling them apart into individual steps, coordinating them in sequence and then executing them. ‘The Performance Edge’ has allowed me to see the value in documenting goals, breaking them down into manageable tasks and 24

then completing them. This has allowed me to organise myself and see progression with my team, rather than simply waiting for the outcome and then discussing whether we hit or missed the target,’ Nathan says.

Similarly for Danielle, the course allowed her to take stock of the way she achieved tasks, and how she could improve her processes to achieve even more. ‘Prior to commencing ‘The Performance Edge’ course I had heard that it was beneficial on a time management front. I had expected to improve my time management, but not as much or as far as Leadership Management Australia made possible,’ Danielle explains.

‘Admittedly, prior to ‘The Performance Edge’ I was not a good goal setter. I achieved a lot, but I had never sat down and thought about my long term goals. I am now achieving the big, audacious tasks, by breaking them down and using the goal setting framework Leadership Management Australia teaches,’ Danielle says.

Not one to sit on the sidelines, decision maker and go-getter Samantha also found new focus through the course, ‘I was practiced in goal setting, however setting focus goals each week improved my current practices,’ she says.

With her recent completion of a Diploma of Government (Procurement and Contracting) and career aspirations of becoming a chief procurement officer, Samantha is well on her way, ‘I am focused on balancing all areas of my life now,’ she says. ‘In the next 12 months I hope to see myself and my team become more productive, and to expand my procurement experience beyond the ICT category.’

As ‘The Performance Edge’ covers a wide array of material, each of the participants finished the journey

with a different takeaway lesson.

‘Prior to this course I would set a task list each day,’ Danielle says. ‘Each day I would receive ‘more important’ tasks from others, and acceptance of these would disrupt my day plan.

Since undertaking ‘The Performance Edge’, I now know what my High Payoff Activities are. The course has assisted with my mindset, and how the power of positive affirmation can assist with goals being achieved,’ she says.

Always aiming for the next step forward, Samantha is determined to continue applying the time management skills learnt, ‘I valued gaining more knowledge into how to manage my time better, and learning how to say no when I need to,’ she says.

For Nathan, the lessons learnt during the course carry over into his team as well, ‘I’ve already seen an increase in quality of work from all of my team members. My biggest takeaway from the course was that previously I expected my team to perform to my expectations, without giving them the full knowledge of ‘why’ they were being asked to do what they were doing…now I try to ensure that my team is fully aware of business goals, expectations and direction so that they have an overall picture of what needs to be done to achieve the required outcome,’ he says.

With the skills and knowledge gained from ‘The Performance Edge’ now a part of these Future Leaders personal and professional toolkit, the future looks bright and sure to be filled with more achievements and milestones to come.

SCLAA SA Major Projects Conference

Media Partnership Expotrade Global is proud to announce its partnership with SCLAA in regards to the 9th Annual SA Major Projects Conference 2016, to develop a multichannel content strategy to promote and share knowledge of the conference.

The conference will include topics on the $985 million Northern Connector Project, the O-Bahn City Access Project, Adelaide Festival Plaza Redevelopment, the Adelaide Conventions Centre Redevelopment, as well as the Torrens Road to River Torrens Project.

The two day conference is a networking and learning opportunity for project managers, operators, contractors, consultants and investors from within the infrastructure and construction industry.

Expotrade Global is a leading conference organiser with over 15 years’ experience producing high-level conferences and B2B events, within the realm of construction, banking, finance, infrastructure, smart cities, energy and lighting.

SCLAA SA/NT Division President, Matt Madsen, identified two key trends for infrastructure and major projects in South Australia.

“Infrastructure – data based decision making on at the programme level. Identifying relevant data sets and building/implementing process to ensure adequate capture and handling of the right data to inform upward decision making,” Madsen said.

“Major projects – Government infrastructure projects are the flavour of the moment. It would be good to see the State Government get more behind the major project pipeline coming out of private industry.”

“Every project has a supply chain. The key is for principals to understand their influence over contractors in the development and management of that,” he said.

“This includes the principal procurement activity in addition to the sub-contracting activities undertaken by the head contractor. Data is the key, without the right time and level, principals may not be in enough control of their own projects.”

The 9th Annual SA Major Projects Conference 2016 will be taking place at the Adelaide Convention Centre on the 10th & 11th of August 2016.
