Will Quinn, the Global Director of Strategy at Infor WMS, discusses the importance of redundancy in supply chains as a strategy to mitigate disruptions. Redundancy involves having backup options like multiple suppliers, buffer inventory, alternative transportation routes, and regional manufacturing facilities to ensure business continuity during crises. Quinn emphasizes that redundancy and nearshoring can work together to reduce overall supply chain vulnerability, highlighting the need for diverse strategies in today's volatile business environment.

Supply chain effectiveness begins with data A strategy focused on standardizing and managing data is the core component to improving supply chain traceability and sustainability, writes Katrina Duck from Inspectorio. The other two critical areas are upstream visibility to support a clear view of the entire supply chain and solid, collaborative relationships that reinforce a healthy ecosystem, writes Duck. #supplyChain #data #traceability #sustainability #visibility

The release of Manhattan Active Supply Chain Planning is a significant step forward for the industry, but explaining why takes some effort. Steve Banker, VP SCM, @Arc Advisory Group shares why on @Forbes: https://ow.ly/5CUR50SeGez #supplychainplanning #businessplanning #supplychain #logistics #manhattanassociates #manhattanscp #supplychainmanagement

It doesn’t take a think tank to realize there’s a list of challenges when it comes to adopting technology in the industry. There are endless pressures to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and meet sustainability goals. And even in areas where there’s real progress—such as supply chain visibility—challenges like disruptions to existing services and a lack of internal expertise remain. To put that point in better perspective, of the transportation and logistics professionals who were surveyed by HERE Technologies, 72% in Germany and the UK and 68% in the US agreed that visibility was improving, but fewer than 25% in each country felt that they’d made significant progress. #thefreightarchitects #jaguarfreight #logistics
