Leading e-procurement solutions expert Alan Livingston, CEO of EOS Technologies, will be sharing his expertise as one of the keynote speakers at the prestigious Supply Chain Management Forum, which is taking place between 24^th and 28^th June in Dubai.

The packed four-day programme of seminars and workshops is expected to be a massive hit with attendees from the world of procurement and supply chain management, keen to hear the latest industry news on how integrating e-sourcing and e-procurement into their long term strategies can help them succeed.

 A regular contributor to trade journals and speaker on the international circuit, Alan is in great demand thanks to his wide-ranging local & global knowledge.

 Alan will be outlining the key benefits of using EOS’s advanced web technology expertise to develop low cost, full supply chain connectivity which fits securely and seamlessly with the existing IT infrastructure, without having to make changes to the existing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system or rely on the ability to pay expensive membership fees.

 “As technology becomes ever more sophisticated, organisations at all levels need to embrace the latest tools to ensure they can compete on a local, regional and even international basis,” says Alan.

 “Supply chain managers are under increasing pressure to meet business needs by exploring new and proven methods of communicating with the widest possible range of contacts, and this conference will be an ideal platform for the discussion and exploration of best practice e-procurement systems and techniques that can help them fulfil their targets.”
