Ottawa, Canada, June 8, 2010 – John Sicard, executive vice president, marketing, development and service operations at Kinaxis, provider of RapidResponse™, an on-demand service for supply chain management and S&OP, will join an impressive list of supply chain experts as a presenter at the upcoming CSCO Summit, the free-to-attend virtual event taking place on June 15th and 16th, 2010.

Attendees will learn about Cisco’s supply chain transformation from a cost-centre to a competitive advantage.

Angel Mendez leads this organization which has been responsible for enabling a high-velocity, agile and responsive enterprise that meets rapidly shifting customer demands while delivering bottom line performance. This session will provide critical insights on the lessons learned and the key focus areas to consider.
The CSCO Summit, a two-day event consisting of an agenda of 11 presentations, brings together an influential group of global supply chain, operations and procurement leaders to learn and share best practices around the critical factors driving strategic supply chain and operational agendas across multiple industry sectors.
