I woke up today realizing I hadn’t done a blog post in months. And that other voice in my head immediately screamed, “you have so many things to do today! WHEN exactly do you magically expect to find time for a blog post?”
Sound familiar? If you’re managing supply chain logistics, this may sound like a familiar morning mental exercise.
Between labor shortages, unexpected delays, compliance pressures, and increasing customer demands, supply chain teams are doing more with fewer resources than ever before.
You know that real-time supply chain visibility could help. But adopting a new technology can feel like one more responsibility on an already full plate.
You’re not alone. Many logistics professionals want better tracking and analytics but feel they don’t have the time to evaluate, implement, and monitor yet another system. The good news? Real-time supply chain visibility can work for you—not the other way around.
Why many supply chain teams feel too overwhelmed to implement new technology
The logistics industry has been grappling with significant labor shortages, exacerbated by events like the COVID-19 pandemic. A survey of 1,000 North American and European supply chain and logistics decision-makers revealed that 76% acknowledged facing critical labor shortages. This scarcity forces existing staff to handle increased workloads, leaving little time or capacity to consider, evaluate, or implement new technologies.
The reality? Most supply chain visibility solutions today require too much effort to use effectively.
- Data Overload. Many platforms provide real-time tracking. But logistics teams still have to sift through alerts, interpret the data, and decide what to do next.
- Constant Disruptions. When shipments are at risk due to temperature excursions, route deviations, or handling damage, teams need real-time cold chain tracking that not only detects problems but also guides them on the next steps.
- No Time for New Systems. Learning a new platform, training a team, and managing a system daily isn’t realistic for teams already operating understaffed and overwhelmed.
