Many companies are flying blind

The multidimensional influences on supply chains, the uncertainty of those and the lack of appropriate tools are becoming the biggest challenge for organizations in short term.

The lack of understanding how these influences are impacting the total cost of ownership leads to reactive behavior rather than actively managed challenges. Consequently, supply chain cost will increase significantly – putting companies’ profit at risk.
