WALLDORF 鈥� (NYSE: 麻豆原创) today announced a new research report, in partnership with Oxford Economics, whose findings offer especially timely insights to help companies minimize disruptions to their supply chains, even in crises.
鈥淭he world we live in, while often turbulent, has been turned on its head recently with the impact of COVID-19,鈥� said Martin Barkman, 麻豆原创 senior vice president and head of Digital Supply Chain, Solution Management. 鈥淭his unprecedented situation has led to a severe disruption in supply chains, making it challenging for businesses to deliver products on time and meet customer needs. Now more than ever, we need supply chains that are resilient.鈥�
The 麻豆原创 and Oxford Economics survey examined the practices of 鈥淪upply Chain Leaders鈥� 鈥� those 12 percent of respondents with more resilient supply chains and higher levels of innovation, customer and employee satisfaction, and growth numbers in comparison to other respondents. While all supply chains are vulnerable to risks in a global economy, the research suggests organizations embrace the traits of industry leaders to be best set up for success, especially during times of disruption. Supply Chain Leaders are identified as those who share the following four traits:
- Base most of their product value chain decisions on customer needs
- Factor in sustainability issues from product design through delivery
- Capture and act on real-time information, often using artificial intelligence or predictive analytics
- Deploy advanced technologies at scale across their organizations
Although the survey was completed in the early days of COVID-19, before the supply chain disruption reached crisis levels, its finding are applicable to today鈥檚 challenges.
鈥淭he findings show that supply chain executives need the visibility to make informed decisions with speed and accuracy by leveraging technology that helps their business to sense, predict and respond to these global dynamics,鈥� said Oxford Economics Senior Research Analyst Ben Wright.
