Announcing the Workshop on Responding to OTIF Fines

What’s going on?
----------------

On Wednesday, December 16, 2020, at 10 AM CST, [**SupplyPike**](https://www.supplypike.com/) and [**Supplier Community**](https://www.supplier.community/) are teaming up to bring you session #3 of our [Ultimate OTIF Workshop](https://supplierwiki.supplypike.com/articles/announcing-the-ultimate-otif-workshop/): [**Responding to OTIF Fines**](https://www.supplier.community/products/otif-best-practices-what-to-do-when-you-expect-otif-fines)**!**

It’s been a few months since Walmart implemented a new [**98% On-Time In-Full goal**](https://supplierwiki.supplypike.com/articles/new-2020-walmart-otif-changes/), and now suppliers are starting to see the fines associated with non-compliance. How do you respond? What do you do now? In this workshop, we’ll dive into the next steps you should take once you receive OTIF chargebacks.

What will the workshop look like?
---------------------------------

The workshop will feature 1 hour of instruction, 30-45 minutes of workshop time, and 30-45 minutes of general discussion and questions.

The 3rd session, **Responding to Fines**, will be on Wednesday, December 16th at 10 AM CST and will last 2 hours. We’ll cover some OTIF best practices, what to do when you expect OTIF fines, and a hidden technique for disputing OTIF fees.
