Like lead-based paint and gas guzzling automobiles there’s no looking back on the rollercoaster that is today’s supply chain. Fast-forward to today, and you know how the story goes: delivery times shrink while convenience and customer expectations skyrocket. On top of that, nobody can name their baby Alexa because Amazon practically trademarked it.

• Customers seek brands that provide personal experiences, yet…
• They also want the all of conveniences online shopping provides, meanwhile…
• Businesses face a shrinking workforce to deliver on all these customer expectations while…
• They look for ways to increase throughput and lower cost per unit in their supply chain and foster repeat business.
