In this episode of Rethinking Supply Chain, Venzee CEO, John Abrams, chats with Niki Founder, Hermann Fink, about his experience with supply chain management. Hermann’s graduate research looks into how linear supply chain has shifted to a network model. His interest in non-linear supply chain began with a passion for technology and the disruption of traditional models. Understanding the implications of supply chain disruption can be complex, so John and Hermann explore how businesses and organizations can systematically adapt to the new systems. There is no linear way of approaching the change because everything is happening so rapidly and chaotically. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the supply chain has become exponentially stressed, leaving companies with an urgent need to digitize as soon as possible.To conclude, Hermann suggests thinking about changes from a different perspective. Technology isn’t necessarily an addition to how things work; rather, there needs to be a shift that places technology at the core of operations to add value to the supply chain overall.To learn more about what Hermann is working on, you can visit the Niki company website, or connect with him on LinkedIn. He’d love to hear from you.
