Known for its ability to assess and predict supply chain trends before those developments impact the broader marketplace, global research firm Gartner, Inc., recently released an updated list of top technology themes that all supply chain leaders and procurement organizations should be watching this year.
Gartner says its analysts selected the themes for their “transformational potential” and ability to foster operational resiliency across business functions, technology, and service delivery. “This year, we’ve decided to focus on broader, overarching technology themes rather than individual technologies,” said Christian Titze, VP analyst with the Gartner Supply Chain practice, in a press release. “This is because innovative technologies are often combined together in order to solve specific supply chain business problems.”
