Resilient Supply Chain From Big Brands to Small Fleets: A Holistic Look at Load Optimisation
In today's episode of the Digital Supply Chain podcast I'm talking to Tom Moore, an industry veteran who knows the ins and outs of the supply chain like nobody else. You'll want to grab a notepad because this one is a knowledge feast!
🔥 What's Cooking? 🔥
- We kick things off by taking a look at the past five years and the transformative leaps in supply chain management.
- Tom Moore shares what Gartner predicts about convergence in planning and operational systems and how it affects the entire supply chain. Spoiler: it's all about "Level Loading!" 📦
🔮 Future Gazing 🔮
Wondering where things are heading in the next 4-5 years, or dare I say 10? You won't want to miss Tom's insights. Hint: It's all about bringing everything closer, but not without its challenges, of course. It's time to start trusting your vendors and gaining your customers' trust.
👀 What’s Next for Tom's Companies? 👀
- They are set to bring load optimization not just to the Unilevers of the world but also to smaller businesses. Yes, even if you're shipping just 10-15 trucks a week, this one's for you!
- And hey, let's talk about partnerships! Tom reveals a new collaboration that could revolutionize how we approach warehouse operations.
🚛 The Unsung Heroes: Carriers 🚛
We wrap up by highlighting an often-overlooked aspect: the challenges in the trucking business. Tom thinks it's high time to give them the attention they deserve.
