Episode #145
Send me a message A supply-chain decision can be perfectly correct, and still be useless if it arrives too late. Better forecasts matter, but the harder problem is turning uncertain, fragmented information into action...
Episode #144
Send me a message AI can make supply-chain decisions faster. It can also scale the data problems people have been quietly correcting for years. Once machines start acting rather than merely reporting, inconsistent...
Episode #142
Send me a message A 98% response rate sounds excellent—until the missing 2% includes police and ambulance calls. That is the problem with judging automation by averages when the exceptions carry the greatest operational...
Episode #141
Send me a message Cutting labour when demand dips can look like smart cost control. But if workers respond by finding more reliable work elsewhere, today’s saving can become tomorrow’s churn, hiring cost and capacity...
Episode #140
Send me a message More supply-chain data does not automatically produce better decisions. Digital systems can expose risk, but they can also reproduce the same governance failures, blind spots and weak assumptions...
Episode #139
Send me a message AI can cut routine supply chain work and reduce payroll costs. But eliminating entry-level roles could leave your business short of experienced leaders when the next disruption demands judgement. I’m...
Episode #138
Send me a message Warehouse automation can increase throughput while quietly creating a new failure point: maintenance that has not kept pace. When critical assets fail, the consequence is not an engineering...
Episode #137
Send me a message If you’re buying 120% of the food required to serve 100% of your customers, you don’t have a waste problem. You have a forecasting, procurement and margin problem. My guest is Olaf van der Veen...
Episode #135
Send me a message Supply chains have more operational data than ever, yet warehouses still miss carrier cut-offs, misallocate labour and react too slowly when conditions change. The problem is often not seeing what is...
Episode #134
Send me a message AI models are getting smarter at an astonishing pace. But if they can't reliably sense what's happening across your supply chain, they'll still make poor decisions. The real bottleneck may not be...
Episode #133
Send me a message Carbon data is moving out of annual reports and into the transaction itself. If your product-level information is incomplete, market access, customer trust and supply-chain decisions can all suffer. My...
Episode #132
Send me a message Supply-chain mapping can now take five seconds. The harder problem is deciding which supplier risks matter, who owns the response, and whether procurement can act before the data creates paralysis. I’m...
Episode #131
Send me a message An autonomous truck does not create an autonomous yard. Without aligned decisions, reliable data and clear ownership, smart assets become expensive distractions. I’m joined by Matt Yearling , CEO of...
Episode #130
Send me a message What if your ERP only sees the supplier decision after the real battle is already over? In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I’m joined by Spencer Penn , CEO and co-founder of...
Episode #129
Send me a message How many fulfilment failures start as “just this once” exceptions? In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I’m joined by Leo Rodriguez , VP at River Plate Inc ., a Southern California...
Episode #128
Send me a message How much do we really know about the minerals powering the energy transition? In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I’m joined by Johan Oosthuizen , a responsible sourcing specialist...
Episode #127
Send me a message What if supply chain resilience is already too slow for the world we’re now operating in? In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I’m joined by Abe Eshkenazi , CEO of ASCM , the...
Episode #126
Send me a message What if returns are hiding 4–5 points of EBITDA in plain sight? In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I’m joined by Terry Boyle , CEO of Trove , to explore one of retail and logistics’...
Episode #125
<p>Send me a message</p><p>What if your biggest supply chain risk isn’t disruption, but the time it takes to decide what to do next?</p><p>In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I’m joined by Robbert de...
Episode #124
<p>Send me a message</p><p>Most supply chains talk about AI and automation. Meanwhile, many yards are still running on pen, paper, radio calls, and chaos.</p><p>In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I’m...
