The changing supply chain
The evolution of the supply chain industry continues at a rapid pace.
Growing globalisation has improved the cost of transport and the ease of communication between countries. However, this ‘global network of supply’ has created its own set of risks and challenges. Meanwhile, digital disruption and emerging technologies have redefined many industries and shifted the status quo.
Yet, far from creating stability, these advances have caused customer expectations to become even more complex and demanding. More than ever it is necessary for businesses to adapt and invest in their supply chain processes. Not only to meet the requirements of their customers but to stay competitive in tighter markets.

The importance of a supply chain strategy
For your supply chain to compete, particularly in the world of e-commerce, you must leverage your core competencies.
Strategies should be made for all elements of the supply chain and their extended capabilities, along with an implementation, execution, and performance monitoring plan.
A strategy enables supply chains to adapt appropriately in this era of technological advancement, ensuring transformations remain aligned to the wider business goals. Performance measures and metrics that should be regularly monitored will fall out of the analysis of the critical business question.
At Trym, our consultants are trained to help you understand, identify improvements, and strategize for growth. Our mission is to offer you a bespoke service that will save you time, money, and hassle.
A digital approach to the future
Exploring data is a great way to identify those critical opportunities to improve efficiencies and reduce costs.
Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), e-commerce platforms, and transport planning technology (to name a few) collect a wealth of data during their operation, which can be mined for valuable insights.
For planning, predictive analytics is used to find patterns within historic customer orders to forecast future requirements. One of the many benefits of this exercise is improved inventory availability, as well as lower stock holdings.
By presenting a high-level overview of your entire supply chain, a consultant can help you to identify the priority areas of improvement. The best digital supply chain transformation projects are guided by this data and insight, designing solutions that are fit for the future.
Further digital opportunities, such as robotics, AI and automation will continue to have larger roles to play in staying one step ahead of the competition in offering low prices and best-in-class customer service.
