Solving supply chain challenges in real-time
There is a
lot of technological development going on in the global supply chain these
days. Automation, artificial intelligence and other digital innovations are
helping a lot in shipping. Many gaps in the global supply chain have been
exposed from 2021 to 2022. The system will completely automate all the work very soon. The supply
chain includes dozens of industries and thousands of companies. Full automation
will be slow and capital intensive.
Instead, businesses
should learn from the ongoing supply chain crisis and find technology solutions
for it. While they cannot digitize every link in the supply chain, or solve all
problems in a global supply chain, businesses can identify bottlenecks and use
technological solutions to reduce them.
Some
contributors to increased supply chain costs include:
• Rising fuel cost to transport goods by road, sea or air
• Rising commodity prices are increasing the cost of raw
materials
• Increase in high labor cost of suppliers and manufacturers
• Higher fees are placed for the storage, transfer and
management of international logistics products
