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.

The Future of Supply Chains: Where Talent Meets Technology
The events of the past five years have made one thing unmistakably clear: the supply chain has reached a defining inflection point. The technology, talent management strategies, and operating models that delivered success in the past are giving way to new priorities centered on speed, resilience, continuous intelligence, and data-driven decision-making. For decades, supply chains were viewed much like the plumbing in your home—essential, reliable, predictable, and largely invisible. That changed when a series of global disruptions exposed just how critical supply chain performance is to business success. The “pipes” broke, and the impact was sudden and extreme. From the pandemic and geopolitical instability to port congestion, inflation, cyber threats, extreme weather events, and the rapid emergence of artificial intelligence, supply chain leaders have been called upon to navigate unprecedented complexity while maintaining business continuity. As a result, the supply chain has moved from the back office to the boardroom. No longer defined simply by buying, making, and shipping products, leading organizations recognize the supply chain as a strategic capability—one that drives growth, strengthens resilience, enhances customer experience, enables innovation, and creates competitive advantage. And now, the supply chain sits at the intersection of two unstoppable forces: talent and technology.…

Feeling the squeeze? How to Meet OTIF Targets in an Uncertain World
While many things have changed in the post-pandemic world, retailers are increasingly strict about on-time in-full (OTIF) service targets, pushing Consumer Packaged Goods (CPGs) to implement new supply chain practices. Chargebacks to CPG and Food & Beverage suppliers are rising, putting added pressure on profits and increasing the risk of lost sales. While the supply chain challenges CPGs face are relentless, it is possible to achieve high OTIF performance with better forecast planning, strong supplier collaboration, logistics visibility, and more. Don’t miss KPMG’s Ken Spigarelli and e2open’s Mike Hitmar as they explore tactics to quickly get OTIF on track and share strategic insights for long-term supply chain resiliency. Topics for discussion: · Industry insights into the biggest challenges for the next 12 months and how to best prepare and deal with uncertainty · Real examples of organizations using logistics visibility, historical insights, and automation to drive OTIF performance improvement · How to use OTIF as a driver for end-to-end supply chain efficiency and resiliency
