21st Century Supply Chains (SC21) is the single, coordinated industrial change programme developed by and for the UK aviation, space and defence industry. SC21 is probably the most important development programme that suppliers in these sectors have ever been asked to participate in. This industry-led campaign is aimed at transforming the way UK does business. Not only does it accelerate competitiveness but it acts to cement those vital relationships between customer and supplier essential for hassle-free business.
With international competition growing the participation of companies is crucial if they are to compete in what is becoming a globalised supply chain. SC21 is of relevance to established aerospace/defence suppliers and companies seeking to enter these sectors. Engaging with SC21 will measurably (£) boost business performance and enhance customer relationships.
