Embrace Disruption: The Supply Chain. Being able to respond to customers' needs in a timely manner is essential — and the ability to respond logistically continues to be challenged. Enhanced supply chain management practices enable your shop to meet a variety of goals. We review logistics considerations metalworkers should be concerned with and ways to mitigate any challenges. Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems are one method of addressing your shop's unique needs. We also learn how reshoring and nearshoring of manufacturing and supply operations is impacting the flow of goods.
