A major attraction of FreightWaves’ The Future of Supply Chain live event in Northwest Arkansas on May 9-10 will be the seven-minute live demos. Here’s a preview of one of those demos.
Automate what you hate. A phrase that has taken over the global supply chain. Anything that can be improved and free up a person to do anything else is considered a win.
However, not all of the automation solutions are created equal. “No touch” is rarely that; people will still be around to cover what machine and software development miss. It’s rare to get something that truly automates and improves processes start to finish while seamlessly integrating into a company’s current platform.
