Organizations across sectors are embracing artificial intelligence in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, with a focus on building greater resilience, adaptability and efficiency in their supply chains.

Inmar, an industry-leading provider of technology-driven reverse logistics and supply chain solutions, recently developed a customized SaaS solution for a top-10 national big-box retailer. The results were reduced costs of monthly store labor and transportation, consolidated vendor returns, and improved shipping, inventory, and data visibility.

No one saw e-commerce at this scale coming this quickly. Now that orders will originate in smaller sizes for many more customers, how can third and fourth-party logistics providers guarantee time-definite delivery?

Why it's more important than ever for manufacturers and distributors to automate their supply chains, or pay the high costs associated with not going digital.
