"For sixteen years running, SupplyChainBrain has published our much-anticipated list of 100 Great Supply Chain Partners — a select group of companies whose customers recognize them for providing outstanding solutions and services. Our six-month online poll of supply chain professionals requires a qualified response, asking them to nominate vendors and service providers whose solutions have made a significant impact on their company's efficiency, customer service and overall supply chain performance. This year's field of nominees was competitive and inspiring - coming from all sectors of supply chain management. Command Alkon should be proud to be named amongst the 100 Great! Command Alkon will appear in the 2018 October issue of SupplyChainBrain magazine as an honored member of this year's 100 Great Supply Chain Partners," said Brad Berger, Publisher, SupplyChainBrain.

By automating manual processes, companies streamline their inter-enterprise operations, which lowers costs and creates greater efficiencies. Enhanced supply chain visibility equips more informed decisions, and as the data from disparate systems is harmonized across the industry, insights gathered will be put to work to transform how companies in construction collaborate with one another to achieve superior outcomes.
