Chris Hazen, Director of WSP Environment & Energy in Asia, is speaking at a leading industry forum in Shanghai in September on best practices in product and supply chain environmental management.

The event on Thursday 10th September, hosted by the Global Supply Chain Council, will bring together supply chain and quality experts to learn about what each different industry is currently doing to improve quality and performance.  The forum will provide both strategic and tactical information on the top quality trends, issues, and tools in China.

Chris will address best practices in product and supply chain environmental management through his presentation, 'Material composition as an aspect of Quality:  Electronics industry best practices'.  Drawing on case studies from leading tech sector companies, Chris will present cost-effective risk management strategies and tactics deployed by leading electronics companies to reduce the incidence of non-compliant materials.  The implications are significant for other industries who are still struggling with the issue of toxic chemicals in their supply chain or products.
