HOBI President Moderates Conference Panel on Role of Reuse
Technology plays a significant role in an enterprise’s success and how well it operates and functions. The kind of technology an industry decides to adopt or incorporate within its business or organization has a vital role in its supply networks’ effectiveness. Although every industry, from food to healthcare to education, uses technology to their advantage, here are some industries and the tools they have included within their business to influence their supply chains positively.
Electronics
Due to different factors and economic uncertainties, the electronic supply chain has been unstable. The electronic industry is encouraged to build relationships with multiple vendors, both regional and international, to create flexibility and close supply shortage gaps. To achieve this, manufacturers use collaborative software for full visibility of products and services. This provides the convenience of ordering parts as soon as they become available and the ability to look at multiple suppliers rather than just one. This also provides the freedom to utilize artificial intelligence on the job.
Construction
The construction industry is extremely complex, with multiple working collaborators ranging from suppliers, contractors, subcontractors, and countless others. The construction industry has relied on technology to enhance efficiency and productivity. Productive analytics, a way to predict future outcomes, has helped businesses make decisions. The tool can collect and review vast existing data and provide a screenshot of future outcomes. This is helpful, especially to identify potential barriers within the chain and to recognize which supply partners are more suitable.
E-Commerce
As consumers’ shopping habits have shifted to online shopping, many businesses and store owners have begun incorporating technology within their companies to keep up with the demands. By adopting cloud-based networks as a service tool, operations can accommodate a variety of customers’ requests and adjust as demands change. Using collaborative applications throughout the chain gives businesses the ability to communicate smoothly. E-commerce business owners also apply security infrastructures to construct a solid supply chain. Adopting artificial intelligence-driven threat detection tools allows enterprises the ability to detect all activities that emerge across the chain and accommodate them accordingly.
Selecting and incorporating the right technology within a business significantly impacts the supply chain’s success. Staying current on technologies keeps enterprises operating efficiently and productively, and provides them with a competitive edge.
