SEPTEMBER 20246 In 2024, the supply chain landscape in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is witnessing significant transformations driven by technological advancements, strategic realignments, and heightened sustainability efforts. A significant advancement is the push for greater visibility beyond Tier 1 and 2 suppliers. Organizations increasingly utilize advanced technologies like digital twin and control towers to gain deeper insights into their extended supply chains. The complexity and dynamic nature of supply chains have also necessitated flexible and rapid software development, like low code platforms, to make supply chains flexible and agile. In response to past disruptions, companies are reevaluating their supply chain strategies. There is a move towards strategic supply chain design, emphasizing long-term resilience and efficiency. This includes diversifying sourcing strategies and investing in advanced technologies like AI, IoT, and blockchain to create more connected and intelligent supply networks. As supply chains generate vast amounts of data, there is a growing need for interoperable systems that integrate various data sources for comprehensive insights. Open, independent platforms are becoming essential for efficient data exchange and actionable intelligence, enabling better decision-making and streamlined operations. In addition, environmental sustainability is increasingly prominent as companies prioritize measuring and reducing Scope 3 emissions. These emissions span the entire supply chain, posing monitoring challenges yet pivotal for meeting comprehensive sustainability goals. The adoption of digital platforms that streamline the collection and integration of emissions data from suppliers is on the rise.
