Improve Impact Through Supply Chain Innovation

The Gartner Supply Chainnovator Awards

Recognizing how supply chain innovation improves impact

The Gartner Chainnovator Awards is an annual research program that identifies, assesses and awards outstanding examples of Supply Chain Innovation. Our goal is to identify the innovative, unconventional and high-impact initiatives leaders are working on and investing in to drive the transformation of their supply chains.

The Gartner Chainnovator Awards align with the Industry Exchanges at our annual Gartner Supply Chain Symposium/Xpo™, where we presented awards to companies in the following industries:

  • High-tech 
  • Consumer products 
  • Retail 
  • Industrial 
  • Healthcare

Submissions from the 2020 Power of the Profession Awards are automatically eligible for consideration in the 2020 Chainnovators awards

Have a submission for the 2020 Gartner Supply Chainnovator Awards program?

Submission deadline December 31st, 2019

You can’t hide from poor results. It’s in front of you. If you’re not doing well, you can’t hide it.

Gartner Supply Chain Symposium/Xpo

The World’s Most Important Gathering of CSCOs and
Supply Chain Executives™

Turn your vision into action at Gartner Supply Chain Symposium/Xpo™ 2020, where chief supply chain officers (CSCOs) and their leadership teams gain a strategic view of the trends disrupting their business. Through collaboration with Gartner experts, thought leaders, industry peers and solution providers, you’ll explore new ways to approach your most critical challenges and achieve greater impact as a leader.

Before coming to this conference, I thought I would get information on how supply chains run in different companies. It exceeds my expectations on digitalization; what it means and how to get there ... I gain a lot from this conference and am able to link up with like-minded peers.
