Severn Trent has carried off the Overall Winner trophy at the Supply Chain Excellence Awards – fighting off stiff competition from McVities Carlisle, Turkcell, Elval, Euro Car Parts and Lesara. The Awards were presented last night at a glittering gala dinner at the Park Lane Hilton in London.
The Overall Award is chosen from the winners of the Industry Sector Awards.
Severn Trent delivers critical services to more than 4.5 million households and businesses and has undertaken a major restructuring of its supply chain.
The judges said: “This was a project that inspires – they have transformed a fragmented supply chain and have created a structure that delivers competitive advantage through enhanced visibility, transparency, and performance. This is supply chain excellence in abundance.”
