The automotive industry is entering a new era of supply chain collaboration; one driven by connected data, shared intelligence, and standardized digital ecosystems.   In this special webinar, Scott Luton of Supply Chain Now sits down with Kevin Piotrowski and Jim Liegghio of Automotive Industry Action Group to explore the major trends reshaping automotive supply chains and why CATENA-X is rapidly becoming one of the industry’s most important transformation initiatives.   As the official North America hub for CATENA-X, AIAG is helping OEMs, suppliers, and technology providers move beyond disconnected systems and fragmented data toward secure, standardized collaboration across the value chain. The conversation will unpack why data sharing is no longer optional, how leading organizations are connecting systems that were never designed to work together, and why CATENA-X momentum continues to accelerate globally.   Scott, Kevin, and Jim will also discuss practical use cases already delivering measurable results across supply chain visibility, quality, efficiency, traceability, and corporate responsibility, as well as what supply chain leaders should do now to prepare for evolving OEM expectations and digital requirements.   Whether you are already exploring CATENA-X or simply trying to better understand the future of automotive supply chain collaboration, this session…

Most shipping decisions aren’t wrong. They’re just not totally right. The right carrier, just not for that shipment. The right service level, just slightly too fast. The right packaging, just a little off. Individually, these decisions look fine. But across thousands of shipments, they quietly turn into real cost, performance issues, and missed opportunities. At EasyPost, we’ve processed billions of shipments across 100+ carriers. And when you look at that volume of data, patterns start to emerge. The biggest cost drivers aren’t always obvious. They show up in small, everyday decisions that are almost right but just not quite there. In this session, we’ll break down the specific areas where companies are consistently losing money when they don’t need to be. More importantly, we’ll show you how to tighten those decisions so your operation runs more efficiently without adding complexity or slowing things down.
