By reshoring with automation technology, manufacturers can address the workforce challenges they’ve been experiencing for decades. 

The U.S. could establish a more resilient supply chain and protect the economy from global disruption.
Without government aid, intervention and subsidy, however, this is no more than a pipe dream.

South Korea’s biggest shipping company plans to invest 15 trillion won ($11.4 billion) by 2026 on new ships and terminals to strengthen its competitiveness and comply with tighter environmental regulations.

Automation technology can help overcome driver-utilization problems and make the supply chain more efficient, agile, smarter and future-proof.

An increasing number of manufacturers are implementing systems driven by augmented and virtual reality in a bid to boost efficiency, lower costs and minimize human touch points. 

Supply chains are using 20^th-century solutions to solve 21^st-century challenges. 

To date, the stampede for non-fungible tokens has largely centered on the “ownership” of images, works of art and similar kinds of digital files. So what does this latest manifestation of the virtual universe have to do with the everyday reality of supply chain management?

It has always taken smart people to run supply chains, but given the complexities and disruptions of the modern-day world, are they smart enough?

The traditional notion of building resiliency in supply chains is evolving — and it should.

Ever evolving, robotics now can meet most any job in any situation, says Mike Futch, chief executive officer of Tompkins Robotics.
