摘要：	Disruption from the COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect the supply chain, putting stress on shippers. In fact, a recent Accenture survey of C-level executives shows that the impact of supply chain disruption could linger for up to three years, and business leaders across the globe are rethinking supply chain networks. Getting it right will require shippers and third-party logistics (3PL) providers to employ new ways of thinking in order to successfully partner and innovate. There are multiple converging factors making it challenging to navigate the current supply chain complexities. Capacity constraints in sea and air services coupled with bottlenecks at ports and distribution centers (DCs) has led to unprecedented pricing for transportation, increases in disruption-related fees and general inflationary pressures-all of which make it very difficult to control costs. As a result, shippers are working to ensure the right inventory is close to order destinations to capture next-day and same-day delivery demands and reduce shipping needs. Labor shortages, particularly in core supply chain jobs such as pick and pack, trucking, and entry-level administration are putting additional stress on shippers.
