Mission Not-Impossible: Supply Chains & Sustainability Strategies | Sadin on Digital

The Big Themes:


Retail supply chains and OODA loops: Fighter pilots are
trained to Observe, Orient, Decide, and Act when engaged in
fast-moving environments. Retail business leaders should adopt
the OODA approach for supply chain planning.

Sustainability is key to supply & demand chains: We
should not be looking at sustainability in a vacuum, but rather
as integral to the efficient production of goods.

Invest in connecting IT and OT: Let's talk less about
carbon-neutral data centers and more about optimizing physical
processes, which improves quality, saves money, and lowers
emissions. (NB: keep an eye on strong cybersecurity!)



The Big Quote: "If I've observed and oriented and have the tools
to decide, then in a supply chain environment, I can act. I can
take the shot and I can win the engagement. And that's what
companies have to be thinking about in the modern supply
chain."
