Supply Chain Visibility Stories

Digitize Your Supply Chain for the Long Term – Without Short-term Distress

ACSIS Season 2 Episode 7

This episode of the Supply Chain Visibility Stories podcast explores the impact of fully digitizing the modern supply chain: where do you begin and what pitfalls should you avoid? Host Bill Wohl and John DiPalo, Chief Strategy Officer of ACSIS, are joined by Prashanth Sharma CTO of Thoughtfocus that provides solutions for financial services and manufacturing companies around the world. At one level it’s simple: get rid of manual reporting and automate wherever possible. But Prashanth points out, doing so requires a move from a process view of supply chains to a data-centric view. And digitization projects without proper care can result in a deluge of data that causes more headaches than benefits. The panel shares their views on analyzing short- and long-term goals, and then roadmapping the steps you should take to align data analysis with supply chain goals. Join Bill, John, and Prashanth as they deliver a master class in supply chain data.
