Next-gen supply chains: Navigating uncertainty and generative AI
Macroeconomic uncertainties, geopolitical tensions and climate-related risks continue to disrupt supply chains. Fifty-five per cent of executives expect significant disruptions in 2024. In response, businesses are shifting from reactive crisis management to proactive resilience-building strategies. One key approach, prioritised by 73% of executives, is enhancing collaboration with suppliers. Procurement and supply-chain roles are also transforming, requiring a focus on building resilience and driving strategic growth. Additionally, generative AI is being implemented at various points in supply chains, with 65% of chief supply-chain officers expecting the technology to optimise or automate between 26% and 50% of current operations over the next three years.
