Supply chains have a data problem. A simple statement with complicated consequences. While data-driven business decisions have been the norm for some time, supply chains aren't always included in transformation projects. Often, that's because of the pain around their data.
For some, data sits in siloes, comes from different providers, and arrives in different formats, rendering it inaccessible. For others, it’s internal data that creates problems. That could mean not having historical data available or not having benchmark figures to compare against. But turning all that data-driven chaos into decision intelligence is what the 7bridges AI was created to do.
The SupplyTech Breakthrough awards evaluate all the tools, services and companies in supply chain and logistics technology. Their goal? To identify and highlight the companies that stand out and break through the crowded supply chain and logistics market. With 1,200 other companies from 15 countries in the running for this award, a win is no mean feat!
