What’s Happening in Supply Chain Today?

Sep 27, 2023

In today’s environment, understanding your supply chain is critical to the success of your business. Join us as we chat with Lisa Anderson, President of LMA Consulting Group, about what’s going on in the supply chain, technology trends, and why it’s important to have standards. 

 

Key takeaways:

  1. The combination of business intelligence, predictive analytics, and other tools can drive positive results for companies and improve decision-making in areas like production, purchasing, and customer needs.

  2. Labor shortage is a global issue that is causing bottlenecks and potential problems in the supply chain. Companies need to explore technologies and automation to address this challenge and navigate volatility in the supply chain.

  3. Standardizing data and implementing technologies like barcoding and RFID can lead to improved business performance, better forecasting, resource allocation, and material management, resulting in decreased lead times and increased growth. Prioritizing resources and focusing on what will make a difference for customers, revenue, and employee engagement is key.
