Welcome to the Complimentary Supply Chain Alignment Diagnostic.

This thought-provoking evaluation invites you — and up to six team members — to share your perspective on key areas that can transform operational relationships and performance. See the diagnostic content, why it matters, and the value it brings.

In the next steps, we’ll ask you:

This is needed in order to:

  • identify you as the central point of contact
  • give you access to your response and the compiled report once all responses are submitted
  • inform participants who has invited them

This will be displayed to participants and in the individual and team reports. It is usually your organization’s name, but it could instead be a specific team, department, location or portfolio name.

We will ask you to enter a name and email address for each person you want to invite to participate.

We need this information so that we can email each participant their unique link to respond – so they can securely access (and save and return to) their response, and so they can access a short report of their individual response after they’ve submitted it.

You’ll also need this information in order to notify those people in advance of the invitation actually being sent.

It’s important for you to notify participants before we send their invitation email, to:

  • Help them understand why you’re running the diagnostic.
  • Ensure they look out for their invitation email and don’t mistake it for spam.
  • Increase participation rates by setting expectations in advance.
  • Encourage them to take the diagnostic seriously and provide insightful comments.

We deliberately build in a delay of at least one working day after you submit this form in order to give you time to notify participants in advance of them receiving their invitation email. Please ensure that you contact participants in advance of them receiving the invitation email, for all the reasons listed above.

The invitation email will include a short ‘personal message’ from you, together with your name and email address, along with standard instructions on how to access the diagnostic.

This is to ensure that participants are clear about who invited them and why.

The message (which you can edit) will look like this:

[Your Name (Your Email Address)] has added the following context for this invitation:
“I’m inviting you and 5 others to join me in responding to this diagnostic as I value your perspective. It shouldn’t take you more than half an hour, and will help us clarify our strengths and weaknesses, including how aligned we are. Thanks!”

We’ll show you a preview of the full invitation email during the set up process (before they’re sent).

Complete the next steps to provide your details and confirm your setup. We’ll then build your diagnostic, send invitations (for you and up to six participants to access responses), track submissions, and notify you when your Alignment Report is ready. Before Step 4 (Participants), gather names and email addresses for your team and let them know to expect an invite.

Hi,

It would be great if you can join me and a few others in a Supply Chain Alignment Diagnostic.

It should take ~30 minutes to complete – all responses will be anonymous.

You’ll log in securely to evaluate 20 Value Codes across five areas: Shared Goals & Clarity, Collaboration & Communication, Performance & Efficiency, Risk & Adaptability, and Partnership & Trust, selecting one of five evaluation statements for each Value Code.

Your thoughts would mean a lot — please jot them down as comments:

– Point out areas where we can improve.
– Share best practices or tips.
– Add any insights and suggestions for action.

Expect an email from ‘Value Management Team’ (Subject: ‘Your invitation…’).

We have 3 weeks, but quicker responses mean a faster group report.

Any questions or can’t make it? Just let me know.

Thanks so much!

Kind Regards,

Please notify participants before their auto-generated invitation email arrives to:

  • Explain why you’re running this diagnostic.
  • Ensure they recognize the email and avoid spam filters.
  • Boost participation by setting clear expectations.
  • Tap into their experience and wisdom to uncover insights that matter.

We delay sending invites by one business day after setup, giving you time to let them know what to expect.

Name the group this diagnostic covers – a clear, familiar label like your company, department, project team, supply chain network, or any set of people with a shared goal. Participants will evaluate this, and it’ll appear on the cover of your report.

The personal data provided in completing this form will only be used to create your diagnostic, to contact you and participants to run it (full details are in our privacy policy), and for the Value Management Team to contact you when the process is complete, to review findings.

What’s being evaluated:

Participants will be presented with 20 attributes and asked:

“To what extent is this attribute demonstrated by _______________?“

We need you to fill that gap with a short label – a clear and recognizable name for what you’re asking people to evaluate – and it will also appear on the report front page as:

“Report on: _______________”

What you’re evaluating: *

Short label for what you’re evaluating
