The Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted the weak points of supply chains, causing disruptions in 9 out of 10 supply chains according to our report. A McKinsey research showed that automotive manufacturers have around 250 tier-one suppliers but across the full value chain this number increases to 18,000. Managing such a complex chain can seem like an impossible task.
However, digital technologies like cloud or IoT can help companies by providing real-time data and analysis of any shipment, making it easier to spot the inefficiencies along the way. Geofencing, smart labels and fleet tracking backed by Edge Computing, Narrowband-IoT and the latest network technology ensure that every item in the supply chain can be tracked and you can make almost instant business decisions to protect your products.
