As global supply chains become more complex, the number of issues they face continues to grow:
- Customers are expecting greater selection, quicker shipping, and lower costs
- Labor is becoming increasingly difficult to retain, and even more difficult to find.
- Sustainability is top of mind for consumers, businesses and governments, as manufacturing and supply chain become a major target of change
- Facilities are being pushed to their breaking points, and are seeking ways to quickly improve and adapt to rising expectations
- Technology is continuing to provide supply chains with more data, but choosing silo-ed technology that doesn't communicate with the entire supply chain network can lead to difficult decision making and disconnects between different sides of the business
To help combat these issues, supply chains need to carefully plan and execute on technologies that help build a strong, end-to-end supply chain network that can help support growth and adapt to ever-changing market conditions. Körber Perspectives aims to help businesses understand these complexities, and provide information that could be key to addressing them in the future.
