Omni-channel sales strategies have become essential to companies trying to keep up with Amazon and major retailers. Unfortunately, a lack of understanding in omnichannel supply chains has also led many companies to experience extreme issues in delivering on their promises.

It turns out that many chief supply chain officers (CSCOs) are not leveraging their C-suite counterparts to help reinvent the supply chain function and transform it into an engine of new growth models and customer experiences, according to new research from Accenture.

Putting efforts into high-quality reviews for academic journals has been a task of idealists so far. Unfortunately, these efforts are mostly invisible for appointment committees. That is a pity for two reasons: First, if researchers frequently receive review requests from good journals this indicates that they are respected by their research community.

Don’t let connectivity issues derail your warehouse. Multi-warehouse fulfillment strategies are gaining momentum as organizations work to accelerate shipping times. The strategy isn’t a silver bullet: It comes with a great deal of complexity and isn’t the right fit for some workloads.

I’ve been on the road the past three weeks attending various supply chain chain and logistics conferences, and while the discussions inside the hotel ballrooms have focused on industry trends like blockchain and the state of the transportation market, the discussions outside — which I was completely oblivious to until this morning when I drove my kids to school — have been centered on a single question: Yanny or Laurel ?

In 2016, U.S. Customs and Border Protection raised from $200 to $800 the value of a single imported shipment that’s exempt from duties and taxes, as well as certain reporting requirements. There’s no question that the higher de minimis value benefits shippers of small packages ordered online. That class of commerce has exploded with the rise of the internet, and the boost in the exemption can only spark further growth.

We often explain that freight rates in DAT RateView are based on $45 billion worth of actual freight payments per year, on 65,000 point-to-point lanes. But what does that mean? I get this question a lot. DAT has established very rigorous processes to collect and analyze rate data, and I have been very involved in designing and maintaining those processes since DAT introduced RateView in 2010.

One of the things developed countries have in common is good public education. No nation can achieve greatness without an educated population. An uncomfortable fact, however, is that education — even in developed countries — doesn’t provide a level playing field for students. Children living in poor neighborhoods often struggle to succeed in both school and life.

Even though it's rarely even mentioned in a broker's rate confirmation, the fuel surcharge has a big impact on truckload freight rates. Fuel surcharges were invented in the 1970s, when an oil embargo by Arab countries caused shortages and skyrocketing prices at the pump. "Skyrocketing" is a relative term. Prices went from 38¢ per gallon in 1973 to 53¢ in 1974, then hit $1.19 per gallon in 1980.
