The supply chain is more tenuously linked than ever. At most companies, the logistics and procurement processes are beset by a myriad of global operating systems, incredible pricing pressures and increasingly-sophisticated customer expectations. On top of that, over the past half-decade the already-taxed supply chains have encountered multiple, cascading economic shocks such as rising fuel costs, a global recession, supplier bases that have shrunk or moved off-shore, and increased competition from low-cost outsourcers.
Reliance on traditional supply-chain execution methods is no longer enough. Driving efficiency amidst unpredictability requires new focus, one delivered through analytics.
