This issue of Inside Supply Management® centers around technology and logistics — the intersection between them as well as trends in each. The cover feature highlights the need for a balanced approach when it comes to artificial intelligence (AI), while another feature discusses how AI will not only shape the future of supply management, but also “scale and future-proof” businesses. Other features delve into how to create a strategic CFO-CSCO partnership and how the ISM® PMI® Reports are especially valuable in times of economic uncertainty.
