- Talent Shortage Management
Engage your workforce to excel in supply chain management
Productivity, retention, and competition drive talent mobility
Productivity suffers from supply chain volatility and uncertainty
Global supply chain disruptions hinder planning, complicating hiring talent to fill operational gaps. AI and predictive analytics for the supply chain can help manage disruptions, but the workforce requires upskilling to effectively utilize them. While using the latest technology can attract new talent, it can also discourage existing workers who are used to “the old ways” and must be encouraged to adapt.
An aging workforce inhibits retention of both talent and knowledge
Managing a complex supply chain requires a great deal of experience. As the current workforce heads for retirement, there is a risk of losing their valuable knowledge. An AI-enhanced supply chain platform can help codify this hard-earned information. Modern application interfaces with mobile capabilities can also attract younger talent to fill the gaps resulting from retirements, aided by the captured knowledge.
Differentiate your workplace with technology to compete for talent
You compete with global companies for the same pool of talent. The unique aspects of your company help you stand out to potential employees. Whether it is a frontline, essential, knowledge-based, or skilled trades position, candidates expect your technology infrastructure to be as sophisticated as the devices and applications they use daily, if not better.
