The Ethical Supply Chain Program (ESCP) has partnered with Open Supply Hub (OSH) to enhance supply chain transparency by adding nearly 700 certified factories to OSH's digital map, promoting access to ethical suppliers. Meanwhile, the Procurement & Supply Chain LIVE Dubai event is set to return in 2025, showcasing advancements in procurement strategies, technology, and sustainability. In the realm of supply chain management, ECI's M1 software offers real-time visibility and automation, helping businesses optimize efficiency and reduce costs. Blockchain technology is also emerging as a game-changer in shipping, providing secure and transparent records to tackle inefficiencies and fraud in global supply chains. Furthermore, experts emphasize the necessity of integrating modern technology into supply chain operations to overcome challenges posed by outdated legacy systems. The shift towards digitization and advanced SCM tools is crucial for businesses aiming for sustainable growth in an increasingly complex environment.
