The Future of Supply Chain

The Future of Supply Chain

Author: Stephen Statler November 9, 2021 Duration: 53:40

Supply chain issues are impacting our business and personal lives.  They are also a major driver of IoT projects.  This week we’re talking with Bob Trebilcock, who is the editorial director at Supply Chain Management Review, about the current state of the supply chain, where it is failing, and how it will evolve moving forward.


We also talk about omni channel supply chain, which companies are using it currently, as well as which companies are falling by the wayside. And towards the end of the show we’ll talk about Bob’s career, as well as his favorite songs (linked below). Enjoy!
