- Priority initiatives include understanding customer needs and preferences, improving demand forecasting to increase supply chain agility, digitizing finance activities, prioritizing digital customer demand, and creating a digitally enabled salesforce.
- Top priorities have been geared mostly toward digital reengineering of the value chain, led by digitizing support functions.
