Today's Chief Operations Officer (COO) must seamlessly integrate performance metrics and modern technology to navigate complex supply chain challenges and capitalise on emerging opportunities.  These leaders must use advanced software to drive data-driven decision-making and strategic agility.  Most supply chain software deployed today poses integration challenges and inefficiencies, as traditional on-premise systems were not designed for the modern era.

The project sponsored by Oracle, UK identified challenges and opportunities from existing supply chain software in the face of business environment changes.  It also determined the nature, advantages and future evolution of supply chain software.

The though leadership report developed by the ÀÏ˾»ú¸£ÀûÉç experts is expected to provide comprehensive insights and an enterprise-wide view of supply chain software to guide businesses through today's uncertain times.
