WEBINAR: The Cold Chain Dilemma: Why Visibility Falls Short and What Really Works
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.

Bridging the Gap
Our profession has a tendency to disconnect discussions about how to create high performing supply chains from how to create high performing supply chain employees and teams. We see this in both business and academia. In business, HR is often seen as more administrative than strategic, and supply chain and HR metrics and strategy are often not aligned. It’s a similar situation in academia, with even the great Michael Porter viewing HR as an administrative role. In this webinar, as part of our webinar series, “The Bridge,” we’ll explore the reasons behind the disconnect and how to bridge the gap between supply chains and the people who run them.
