Supply chain organisations must maintain a delicate balance between innovation and operational excellence, says Gartner, Inc. This balance hinges upon bimodal supply chains that can improve and run established practices profitably, while introducing new technologies and strategies that lead to competitive advantage, says the globally-resourced research and advisory specialist.

“We expect several new technologies and strategies to further digitalise organisations by transforming the supply chain,” said Noha Tohamy, research vice president and distinguished analyst at Gartner. “In this year’s Hype Cycle (pictured) we’ve picked out several technologies and strategies that should be on the supply chain leader’s radar, as they will reach maturity in the next five years.”

Gartner analysts will provide additional analysis and information on supply chain trends at the Gartner Supply Chain Executive Conferences taking place 20-21 September, 2017 in London. You can follow news and updates from the events on Twitter using #GartnerSCC.
