As we head into the holiday season, supply delays, logistics constraints and inflation are looming over shoppers and retailers—and the manufacturers and distributors who keep them in supply. The 2021 supply chain shortage is the story of our lives today, as the enormous bullwhip effect of COVID continues. Much of the world is clamoring for finished products from their usual suppliers; but dwindling cargo space, skyrocketing transportation costs, and component delays make it difficult to keep she

Robots are a cornerstone of a smart factory, automating a wide range of manufacturing tasks that are monotonous, physically straining, or even hazardous. However, real-world robotics deployments have not lived up to the revolutionary potential the industrial sector had originally envisioned. Robot implementations are typically confined to specific applications, carry high costs, and are time-consuming.

Supply chains for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs or SMEs) have followed a similar trajectory over the years. Consumers or business owners create a purchase order. Once the items ordered are ready, the supplier contacts a shipping company to move the products. While this has been the norm, it’s not the most efficient system today. With the global supply chain management market expected to reach $37.4 billion by 2027 , most large organizations are heavily invested in supply chain ma

A Request for Proposal (or RFP as it is more commonly known) is one of the most important pieces in sourcing and procurement and the overall supply chain. When a buyer sends out an RFP, potential suppliers know what the project is, its description, and what is needed. When an RFP is sent out, suppliers can then bid. However, this can be a tedious process if you’re still sourcing using spreadsheets or haven’t made your procurement process digital quite yet.
