Entry Overview
Facing relentless disruption from Covid-19-related lockdowns and wider economic and geopolitical issues, the procurement team at Schneider Electric has taken a range of short- and long-term actions to secure critical supplies, helping the business to achieve double-digit growth during 2021. One judge was particularly impressed by Schneider’s offering supply chain finance support to suppliers, demonstrating the company’s willingness to “go above and beyond to support supply assurance.”
