Ensure an agile supply chain that can react quickly to changes in demand
Supply demands
Supply-chain managers face a vexing trend: shoppers are skittish, and spending habits pegged to economic volatility send mixed signals. This makes it harder for executives to anticipate demand and make sound decisions about manufacturing, distribution and inventory. Compounding this development is the evolution of supply chain management. As it steadily moves beyond logistics, distribution and warehousing into a more strategic role, the stakes are changing. Now, timely, accurate product delivery requires sophisticated analytics capabilities, split-second decision making, flexibility and talented workers to manage it all.
