We conducted a research study for Leonardo UK to identify "What the Art of the Possible" could be for their supply chain over a 5-to-10-year period.  The study involved a literature review and a series of interviews with Leonardo and their suppliers and customers.  It was successfully completed at the end of the September 2022.  The output produced guidance on the supply chain trends, which are of the highest priority for Leonardo and others which rank lower.  Both Leonardo and Cranfield have found the project rewarding and informative and it is hoped that we will work together again possibly next year.
