The annual Pros to Know listing celebrates supply chain
executives in manufacturing and non-manufacturing enterprises who
are leading initiatives to position their companies’ supply chains
for the significant challenges of the increasingly complex global
trade environment. McDaniel was previously recognized for his
outstanding contributions to the supply chain profession by Supply
& Demand Chain Executive in 2008. With this year’s recognition,
Avnet experts have been recognized as Pros to Know 14 times.
A 30-year, high-tech supply chain veteran and self-proclaimed
“supply chain geek,” McDaniel leads a team of supply chain
solutions architects in the design of sophisticated, sometimes
one-of-a-kind, end-to-end solutions for both digital and physical
supply networks throughout the global electronic component
ecosystem. One such solution – ProscalNext, a multi-tenant,
web-based ordering application configurable for both B2B and B2C
models – is currently under review for a patent.
Beyond his day-to-day responsibilities, McDaniel is frequently
asked to speak at prominent supply chain and operations
conferences, such as the upcoming SCOPE Supply Chain Conference in
Chicago, March 18-20, 2018, where he will discuss the challenges
and opportunities of managing innovation and change during
disruptive times. McDaniel is also a regular editorial contributor
to several leading industry publications, and serves as publisher
of Avnet’s award-winning Supply Chain Navigator digital
magazine.
“Wade’s creativity and passion for technology, along with his
distinct insights on topics less commonly associated with supply
chain management, such as blockchain, the maker movement, trade
finance and multi-modal operations, have earned him a reputation as
supply chain thought leader,” said Lynn Torrel, senior vice
president, global customer and supplier management for Avnet. “In
addition, through the many years I have had the privilege of
working with Wade, his leadership in the development of so many
unique and strategic supply chain tools and processes have
demonstrated that he is not just a ‘pro to know,’ but a true
architect of change.”
