Q: What are some of the key trends taking shape right now in the logistics management environment? A: A big one is the unification of ecosystems. When disruption became acute and common, businesses began realizing their siloed systems were putting them at a disadvantage in managing complex international inbound, trans-loading facilities, distribution centers, and omnichannel customers. Another trend is "inventory execution" or making the most of what you have in the current climate of uncertainty and disruption. With recent parts and product shortages and volatile demand, businesses are scrambling to keep all tiers of customers satisfied and get the popular finished products to the right places at the right time while creating pathways for newly obsolete products. It's motivating companies to replace manual processes with automated and intelligent business rules. |
