In its latest bid to drive productivity across the region, Resource Efficiency East (REE) has secured funding to run the Supply Chain Network, with the aim of improving the resource efficiency of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) by working with the supply chains of up to eight larger regional organisations.
The network is designed to improve resource efficiency on a collective basis by enabling larger organisations to mentor and engage SMEs that are connected through their supply chain to many other organisations.
Applications to become a host within the network are being invited from public and private sector organisations in the East of England who are keen to work with and mentor their supply chain to deliver improvements in resource efficiency.
