RPA

RPA creates opportunity for supply chain professionals to benchmark, discuss, and solve challenges with reusables.

2015 programs established for five committees: Education, Marketing and Communications, Membership, Industry Affairs and Standards, and End User Advisory Committee.

Winners to be announced at April forum focusing on best practices, challenges, and benefits associated with reusables in a supply chain.
