Managing Supply Chain Complexities to Drive Operational Efficiency
Supply chain challenges are fast emerging as a major roadblock for the timely completion of plant engineering projects across industries. Increasing cost pressures, the need to find alternate best-cost country sources, vendor coordination, and expedition challenges often impact the project schedule. Order fulfillment suffers from inventory shortages, logistical inefficiencies, and delivery delays.
Organizations are also struggling to strike a balance between the adoption of new technology solutions like Robotic Process Automation (RPA), workflow automation, and AI while optimizing the cost of SCM operations. All these challenges, coupled with the thrust on implementing a green supply chain and reducing the carbon footprint at each stage of the SCM lifecycle, are forcing SCM professionals to look for innovative solutions.
