A Smarter Supply Chain Network – RH NETWORK
Posted on 30. Sep, 2009 in RHSCA
On October 1, 2009, the Railways and Harbours Supply Chain Association will officially launch the RH NETWORK. This web-based facility will operate under the auspices of Railways Africa and the World of Industries web environment. In the same way that social networking sites such as Facebook and Linkdin operate, the RH NETWORK provides an online business tool. This will allow for networking, connecting and will facilitate collaboration between suppliers and operators within the rail and port sectors globally.
The Railways and Harbours Supply Chain Association is an initiative originally set up by Transnet as a support service to its Competitive Supplier Development Programme (CSDP). The CSDP, which was developed by the Department of Public Enterprises, is being implemented in most state-owned enterprises.
The RH NETWORK tool allows for a broader scope of participation from operators throughout Africa. It will connect many more global suppliers to these industry sectors.
