Transportation & logistics 2030 A series of Delphi studies

Supply chains will come under increasing attack, and companies need to be aware and prepared. That could mean rethinking their approach to dealing with potential supply chain disruptions.

Highlights from survey:

• Greater investments to secure ICT systems from cyber attacks will be absolutely mandatory.
• No supply chain will ever be 100% secure – better technology and well-trained people can make a big difference.
