Supply Chain & Industrial Operations

For years, so-called ‘operations’ – procurement, supply chain, transport, warehousing, maintenance, and related back-office work such as sales administration - have been considered support functions.
The Operations & Supply Chain Excellence practice at Sopra Steria Next helps organisations to deliver on their client promise by mastering and ‘agilizing’ industrial operations and supply chain. We enhance the performance of our clients in dealing with increasingly complex and ever-changing environments. As members of France Supply Chain, we make sure that quantity unequivocally means quality.
