2. Dear Colleague,
I am delighted to be working with PEX Asia on their 2014 summit. The event is designed for process management
professionals who want to be at the forefront of change, champion excellence in their organisation and collaborate on
creating the next generation of process transformation strategies.
Process Excellence is being redefined in this digital age, transforming organisations and revolutionising how business is
conducted globally. To be competitive your company needs to continually evolve and move beyond just Lean Six Sigma.
Process Excellence today draws on a raft of evolving methodologies including Lean, Six Sigma, Business Process Management,
Enterprise Architecture, Total Quality Management and Statistical Process Controls to enable organisations to improve the way
they operate and deliver. Notable organisations such as the Singapore Exchange, ANZ, Shell, Nokia and the BP Group will be
sharing the different ways they have blended and harmonised approaches within their ranks to enable their teams to connect
more swiftly to relevant information, improve workflow automation and meet the ever changing consumer and market needs.
Excitingly, as part of this year's event we have provided delegates with an exclusive opportunity to undertake our certification
training programme, normally only available in the UK and US. This is designed as two in-depth workshops which will give you the
essential skills to take on process change and lead with excellence. Completing the course will also qualify you as a Certified
Process Professional (CPP Levels 1 & 2).
The process professionals we researched with during production of PEX Asia identified their core challenges as how to core
challenges as how to:
1. Differentiate their organisation by continually meeting and exceeding process quality and customer service
2. Capture, synthesise and align their client and business needs
3. Continuously improve workflow automation and project turnaround times
4. Swiftly adapt, evolve and improve global supply chain management in ever changing markets
5. Better manage multiple PEX projects
All within reduced timeframes and budgets and still meeting the expected outcomes from reporting executives and boards!
At the PEX ASIA 2014 you will find presenters, delegates, information and ideas which pose solutions to resolving these exact
challenges. Using PEX to drive business growth, increase profitability and competitive advantage is more critical than ever.
This is your chance to revitalise, strengthen and accelerate your process strategies.
We hope that you will be able to join us in Singapore at our PEX Asia 2014. Please do take a moment to look through this
brochure or go to our PEX Asia website for more details.
I look forward to meeting you in February in Singapore!

WHAT PAST ATTENDEES SAY:
“In an economy where capital is tight, the
way you can fund growth is by driving
efficiency and effectiveness”. Process
Excellence is a lever within the company’s
control [to drive business growth]”.
Bob Norris, Business Integration Lead, Deloitte
“Today’s customers have a lot moreinformation available to them and there isa greater difference to their requirements…they are not afraid to vote with their feet.That means we have to be more awareof what customers want and be flexibleand agile to meet the greater variation ofrequirements”.
Jatinder Brainch, Lean Programme Manager,Zurich Insurance
“There is a focus on smaller, more rapid
iterative changes, reflecting the fast-evolving
environments that companies find themselves
operating within. Priorities change, new
threats or opportunities emerge, and the
ability to adapt has become key to survival.
Approaches to process improvement and
management need to evolve with this focus
on flexibility and adapting rapidly to changing
circumstances. You have to be willing to
adapt so what you may have chartered out
in the beginning may need to be adjusted
based on customer feedback, customer input
and changing market dynamics”.

Evening Workshop
18:00 – 20:00 (Dinner will be provided)
If you are keen to maximise your time at our 15th Annual PEX Asia event,
network in an informal setting and gain unique and practical insight into
practical problem-solving methods, then take part in PEX Asia’s beer game.
Improving process and systems efficiencies
for greater customer satisfaction using the
Beer Game Distribution Logistics Simulation
This Beergame is a role-play simulation game which will enable
participants to experience the typical coordination problems
and distribution dynamics of a multi stage supply chain in which
information sharing and collaboration do not exist in the distribution
process of a single item, in this scenario, cases of beer.
The aim is to meet customer demand for cases of beer through the
distribution side of a multi-stage supply chain with minimal expenditure
on back orders and inventory. Initially collaboration and communication
are not allowed between supply chain stages, so players can create
the bullwhip effect.
As a way of facilitating the Beergame in the workshop, your leader will
lead you through exercises, which allows participants to manipulate
various parameters of the game, thus providing delegates with ways
to experience the differences between uncoordinated supply chains
and those with information sharing and coordination.
Participants will benefit greatly from
 Greater knowledge of modern-day systems thinking
 Key tips on how to more effectively achieve process reforms in a
complex supply chain
 A more profound understanding of how information
technology can be used in contemporary supply chains.
The Beergame is a highly sought after logistics theory game,
developed in the 1960s by MIT Sloan School Management professor
and digital computing pioneer Jay Forrester.
