Don’t let anyone fool you. Growing old is inevitable yet seldom fun. In his book Fableheaven , author Brandon Mull wrote, “The curse of mortality. You spend the first portion of your life learning, growing stronger, more capable. And then, through no fault of your own, your body begins to fail. You regress. Strong limbs become feeble, keen senses grow dull, hardy constitutions deteriorate.

The term “digital twin” is a little mysterious. And the application of one even moreso. A digital twin is a model that can be created for a number of things – a jet engine, a factory, even a human heart. But here, we’ll be talking about supply chain digital twins.

And supply chain and procurement leaders need to be ready with the right response — fast. That’s why GEP has created a simple three-part framework that will help CPOs and CSCOs brief the board and C-suite with clarity and confidence.

I noticed that many of them obtained valuable experience at Kiva Systems (Amazon Robotics) prior to their current roles. One such executive credited Mark Messina with Amazon’s ability to scale its rollout of Kiva Systems subsequent to its acquisition of the company.
