Constant Supply Chain Disruption Promises to Keep Logistics Entertaining, Exciting, & Challenging
Special Guest Blog Post written by Brittany Caskey, Chief Commercial Officer – Logistics with DP World Americas I was recently invited to speak with students in the Supply Chain and Logistics Organization at Georgia Tech, and it reminded me why I still find this industry so energizing.

While this isn’t a surprise, it’s an important reminder of the role that technology plays. Roe shared a key example where Amazon Freight connected a customer’s system to its own system. Visibility on the end-to-end movement went from essentially zero to a high level of coverage. Instead of discovering problems only when a shipment failed to arrive, the customer could now see disruptions as they emerged and act earlier. For supply chain teams, that move from partial, delayed information…
