El Tesoro escondido de tu Basura

En este episodio de Supply Chain Now en Español, Sofía Rivas conversa con Margie Bazán, especialista en sostenibilidad y representante de BG Metal Trade, sobre un tema que todos tenemos literalmente en casa; la basura electrónica. Desde los celulares viejos que guardamos “por si acaso” hasta las laptops olvidadas del home office, Margie nos muestra que dentro de todo eso hay tesoros escondidos. El episodio nos sumerge en el fascinante mundo de la minería urbana, donde los metales preciosos se rescatan de aparatos en desuso para darles una segunda (o tercera) vida. Margie comparte cómo funciona este proceso, los retos en Latinoamérica y por qué Asia lleva la delantera. Además, nos deja una gran reflexión: el reciclaje no es solo un acto ambiental, sino una oportunidad para repensar la cadena de suministro y hacerla más circular.

Solving Warehouse Execution Gaps in the SMB Market

Warehouse operations often highlight the gap between business strategy and execution, particularly as small and mid-sized companies grow. Challenges like fulfillment pressure, inventory inaccuracies, and manual workarounds can turn warehouses into bottlenecks that hinder organizational efficiency. When teams lose confidence in their data, scaling becomes more difficult, leaving leadership reactive instead of proactive. In this episode of Supply Chain Now, Scott W. Luton speaks with Kurt Heusner, CEO of Endpoint Automation Solutions, about warehouse execution in the SMB market. Kurt discusses his experience with growth-focused businesses and emphasizes the importance of time-to-value, adoption, and simplicity over complexity. He explains how trust in systems affects team performance and why warehouses often reveal operational challenges first. The conversation also addresses ERP warehouse modules versus standalone WMS solutions as complexity grows, modular implementation approaches, the ongoing significance of barcoding, and how newer technologies fit into modernization strategies. The episode concludes with insights into Endpoint’s peer communities and grant programs designed to enhance warehouse execution without disrupting daily operations.   This episode is hosted by Scott Luton, and produced by Trisha Cordes, Joshua Miranda, and Amanda Luton.   Additional Links & Resources Check out all the great resources and information mentioned during the show:…
