Transporting perishable goods, whether its medicine or produce, is no easy task and requires intense planning. Supply chain and logistics professionals have employed a number of solutions over the past years to ‘get more visibility’ to what is happening and avoid issues. Yet, even with devices frequently transmitting temperature & location in real time, cold chains around the world still suffer from product loss and products arriving with less shelf life than expected. Join Supply Chain Now host Scott Luton, along with Ilya Preston and Brian Shultz with PAXAFE and dive into the reasons why visibility falls short and discover: Why “getting more visibility” isn’t the only solution—many cold chain operations are sitting on valuable data with hidden insights ready to be uncovered. The challenges of handling vast new data streams, including the costs, staffing needs, and limits of human-based monitoring for scaling insights. How managed logistics data can speed decision-making, cut costs, and provide a competitive edge by transforming sensor data into actionable insights. The power of data-driven decisions across domains and how teams leveraging AI can confidently respond to leadership with consistent, fact-based insights.

Digital transformation is what most companies do, but only a few report that they have successfully achieved their aspiration. Why? Because digital transformation starts with people and organization, not with technology. Adapting the organization to be future-ready is the foundation of lasting competitive advantage. Drawing from her experience leading large-scale change management initiatives, special guest Eliza Simeonova, Quality Supply Chain Operations Officer with Haleon, joins Supply Chain Now hosts Scott Luton and Jake Barr, along with OMP Chief Commercial & Markets Officer, Philip Vervloesem, to discuss how smart talent, capability, and organizational choices create real value and how people strategy is adapted to match business goals. This session shares proven approaches for upskilling talent and building teams that confidently leverage AI and digital tools, turning challenging transformations into measurable business results throughout the supply chain. What You’ll Walk Away With: Inspiration to see why the supply chain of the future depends on bold, adaptive leaders—not just faster systems. A new perspective on why waiting for the “perfect” structure or rollout could be holding you back. Insight into how human-centered approaches—investing in people, planning, and end-to-end optimization—deliver the sharpest competitive edge.
