The problem with using big data in the supply chain business is that some companies simply have too much data to make sense of and manage. Oftentimes, supply chain managers are dealing with multiple systems, making it difficult, if not impossible, to gather and interpret the sheer volume of data collected.
More frequently, companies are realizing that they can use big data to their advantage. All their unanalyzed data has the potential to provide valuable insight into better supply chain optimization and more cost savings. It is difficult for companies to improve their supply chains when they fail to make good use of the data available to them.
As the big data trend continues to grow, companies will need to increasingly utilize it to analyze the data they collect. Using big data to better understand supply chain management will give companies a competitive advantage over those that fail to use their data to its full potential.
