Global supply chains face unprecedented challenges. Supply disruptions have more than doubled in recent years, making it critical for manufacturers to detect risks early and take action. Yet, traditional control tower solutions often fall short, operating in silos and lacking the flexibility needed for modern supply chain demands.
In Beyond the Control Tower: A Guide to Supply Chain Resilience, we explore how manufacturers can achieve operational resilience to thrive in this chameleon-like environment.
Why traditional control towers fall short
Traditional control towers were designed to provide visibility into specific supply chain functions, such as logistics or inventory management. While useful, these siloed solutions lack the cross-enterprise collaboration and AI-driven insights required to address today’s complex supply chain disruptions.
What is operational resilience and why does it matter?
Operational resilience is the ability of a supply chain to adapt quickly to day-to-day challenges and unexpected disruptions. It focuses on real-time agility to maintain essential operations and recover faster than competitors. Companies that invest in operational resilience achieve end-to-end supply chain visibility and collaboration that offers increasing returns.
