Last year, many in the supply chain technology industry were warning companies all over the globe to prepare for the unknown. We didn’t know how long COVID-19-related shutdowns, and the ensuing port congestion and crunch on carrier capacity, would last. It now seems that port congestion and capacity issues will persist throughout the year. There is optimism around the corner, but a sunny outlook isn’t enough; it’s past time for supply chain leaders to transform their supply chains to become more

Recently, my team members and I worked on a project with a well-known retailer facing challenges in the e-commerce area of its distribution center – and here was the question at hand: ‘Would replacing the WMS be the best solution?’. This retailer’s challenge was specifically its direct-to-consumer (DTC) picking inefficiency. E-commerce was a rapidly growing area for the retailer, and with a relatively large SKU count (more than 10,000), its WMS was challenged to support strategies for hand

When I was advised that this month’s LogiSYM Magazine would have some focus on digitization, I immediately thought about the absence of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions data in our everyday life. Accounting systems and other operational management systems simply don’t bother to measure waste and in particular, GHG emissions.

Almost every progress-oriented company wants it right now: artificial intelligence (AI). No, actually everyone wants machine learning, which is almost synonymous for many people. The feeling on the executive floor is often: that’s just the way things are done today, after all, we don’t want to be left behind by the competition. Such a drive may initiate necessary transformation, but sometimes it also obscures the view of the things that are actually needed to move forward.
