Improve Impact Through Supply Chain Innovation

The Gartner Supply Chainnovator Awards

Recognizing how supply chain innovation improves impact

The Gartner Supply Chainnovator Awards is an annual research program that identifies, assesses and awards outstanding examples of Supply Chain Innovation. Our goal is to identify the innovative, unconventional and high-impact initiatives leaders are working on and investing in to drive the transformation of their supply chains.

The Gartner Supply Chainnovator Awards align with the Industry Exchanges at our annual Gartner Supply Chain Symposium/Xpo™, where we presented awards to companies in the following industries:

  • High-tech 
  • Consumer products 
  • Retail 
  • Industrial 
  • Healthcare
  • Life Sciences

Submissions from the 2020 Power of the Profession Awards are automatically eligible for consideration in the 2020 Chainnovators awards.
