9 out of 10 industries have not grown in the past 10 year, this is based on data compiled by Supply Chain Insights, an organization focused on delivering independent, actionable and objective advice for supply chain leaders. Moreover, key metrics like inventory turns, are down over time while costs, complexity, and inventory keeps rising.

To survive and thrive organizations must think about things differently and the ability to turn operational data into actions that drive efficiency and innovation is going to be the competitive weapon.
This is where new sources of supply chain intelligence prove critical. By embracing advanced analytics that provides a deeper understanding of the supply chain, leaders can find new opportunities to improve operational performance and better manage the necessary tradeoffs.

STOP WASTING TIME WITH DATA PREP

Up to 60% of data scientist and BI teams spent their time gathering and harmonizing data for analysis. Big Data platforms automatically integrate and harmonize data from across systems.

 GET SMART

Supply chain leaders should think beyond the past. Embrace predictive (What will happen?) and prescriptive (What should we do about it?) approaches to supply chain intelligence.

Supply chain intelligence should predict future challenges and then prescribe a better way forward. This can help supply chain leaders and businesses to learn and adapt to gain new audiences, to see what resonates with new audiences and what works best in certain markets.
