Key takeaways from the JoC report

JOC3
  • AI as a competitve edge
    Artificial intelligence (AI) will drive the next leap in supply     chain operations, and the timing of adoption will play a significant role in setting freight forwarders ahead of their competition. 
  • Focus on How, not If or When
    The critical question to answer for your business is not if or     when, but how you will begin — or continue — to integrate AI. 
  • Balance AI with human input 
    Long-term strategy should be grounded in an understanding of the balance of human input and AI activity — in day-today tasks, ongoing machine learning/improving and your management philosophy. 
  • Prioritise training to increase adoption
    Employee training and pilot programming are vital early steps to address concerns, build consensus and determine the best approach to improve your current operating processes.
