APICS Michiana Presents -
'Until Chapter 11 Do Us Part'
Date: Tuesday, April 09, 2002
Charles Popik, CFPIM
The underlying topic to the title of the presentation is Supply Chain Management.

The theme of the presentation is that supply chains need tender loving care just as do interpersonal relationships. Charles will try to also identify why some supply chain alliances seem to work very well and why some others, like Ford and Firestone, came apart (no pun intended but we'll use it anyway).

He is presently the Instructor of Manufacturing Technology at Everett Community College and an independent consultant in manufacturing resource management to local high tech companies.
