STREAMLINING OPERATIONS TO ACHIEVE GREATER EFFICIENCY

Overview

According to Gartner report, “2020 Gartner Supply Chain Top 25: Retail” published on August 7 2020 by Thomas O’Connor et al, “Gartner’s annual Future of Supply Chain Survey shows that, coming into 2020, retailers were rapidly shifting their view of the role that supply chain plays in business. From 2018 to 2019, we’ve seen the percentage of retailers indicating that supply chain is understood as an equally important part of business success as sales and marketing or product development increase from 43% to 55% — and this was before COVID-19. During the pandemic, senior leadership at businesses in Gartner’s retail Top 10 and Masters lists have emphasized the critical role of supply chain.“

In the same report, Gartner mentioned three key trends about the strategic focus of retail leaders:

The Retail and Consumer Goods companies are facing the following challenges:

  • Media and Channel Fragmentation
  • Changes in Consumer Demographics
  • Mass Customization
  • Increasing Distributor and Retailer Power
  • Social Responsibility
  • Globalization of Supply Chains
  • Financial Pressures and Volatility
  • Diminishing boundaries between Manufacturer, Distributor and Retailer
  • Consumers no longer passive shoppers

It is the time for retail/CPG companies to disrupt with a digital operating model.
