Creating Supply Chains for Disaster Relief: Haiti

January 18th, 2010 at 04:55pm DWilmes

—Tony Friscia, President, AMR Research

The devastating events in Haiti last week have organizations around the world scrambling to help. Standing behind many of those organizations is a unique supply chain software and services organization, Aidmatrix. A non-profit that supports non-profits and relief agencies with the technology and supply chain services needed to get the right aid to where it’s in the most demand.

Aidmatrix is currently working overtime to support the relief efforts in Haiti. AMR Research recently spoke with former Wisconsin Governor Scott McCallum, who is now the company’s CEO and president, about the organization and its work. We offer this case study of Aidmatrix’s work with a call for help. If you’d like to give to the relief efforts in Haiti, Aidmatrix has set up a donation site where organizations are listing specifically what they need (http://www.aidmatrix.org/haiti.htm). You can help fill those needs, whether it’s through cash or if your company has the needed supplies

Trying times like these demonstrate why AMR Research is glad we’re in a position to showcase and share the supply chain best practices that get help where it’s needed.
