Going a bit deeper
Report findings in both North America and Europe show an interesting shift: growth-oriented businesses are attacking uncertainties with technologies that deliver simplicity, accelerated value, and resiliency to their supply chains. Namely, these strategies are targeting:
- The labor crunch: Hiring is fading out of focus for supply chain executives this year while digital upskilling, automation, and retention become the new workforce story.
- Identifying new tech: New approaches are being taken to find the right logistics technology solutions and understand technology ROI — 92% say warehouse management systems (WMS) and order management systems (OMS) will supercharge profitability.
- Order accuracy: Last year, only 16% of supply chain execs worried about order accuracy; this year, it’s the number-one concern for 40% of respondents.
