FACING INDUSTRY CHALLENGES

OPERATIONS DIRECTORATE: SUPPLY CHAIN FORUM (SCF)

Why should you attend? The Supply Chain Forum provides opportunities for members to discuss current, pan-industry supply chain- related issues with each other and with Oil & Gas UK. Attending members play a key role in supply chain and its strategic role in continual business improvement from the perspective of both the client and contractor/supplier. They are also involved in the development and publication of best practices, model documentation and guidance templates. In addition, members will have opportunities to discuss the health, safety and environmental issues in the context of supply chain delivery.

Who can attend? Attendance at the forum is open to all Oil & Gas UK members.

How frequently are meetings held? The Supply Chain Forum meets as a joint Supply Chain Forum four times a year and in separate operator and contractor forum groups three times a year. Example topics The Supply Chain Forum currently has seven work groups, three tailored towards operator members and four tailored towards contractor members. However, participation within these work groups is open to both operator and contractor members:

Operators:

• Legislation • Cost management • People

Contractors:

• Standardisation • Supply Chain Code of Practice criteria

• Renewables • Technology

These work groups provide members with the opportunity to work closely with their industry peers on specific supply chain issues.
