Create new opportunities for innovation and profitability
Join us for an upcoming American Electric Power (AEP) webinar focused on exploring opportunities to rethink supply chain strategy and support the growth of manufacturing in the U.S.
Featuring senior leaders from AEP, Walmart, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), we will explore the opportunities and resources to support AEP customers and suppliers to continue to grow and thrive in communities across AEP's eleven-state footprint.
Companies like yours are reimagining supply chains, locations of production and distribution, and the impacts these have on sustainability and ESG goals. "Made in America" policies are also creating new opportunities to invest in manufacturing in the U.S
The webinar will touch on a broad range of topics that matter to business leaders and strategists, including:
How AEP can support and assist our customers and suppliers with growth and expansion projects.
Walmart's latest multi-billion dollar commitment to source products made, grown, or assembled in the U.S.
Walmart's Open Call to find new suppliers - applications being accepted now. Learn how to pursue yourself, or gain new ideas for your company's procurement practices.
Federal resources through NIST and the Manufacturing Extension Partnership to support manufacturing competitiveness and the latest "Made in America" policy opportunities.
Data and reports available from AEP to support our customers with their own ESG and sustainability reporting objectives.
