The Supply Chain Buzz is Supply Chain Now’s regular Monday livestream, held at 12n ET each week. This show focuses on some of the leading stories from global supply chain and global business, always with special guests – the most important of which is the live audience!

This week’s edition of The Buzz featured Mark Holmes, InterSystems’ Senior Advisor of Supply Chain. His 25+ years of experience in consulting, manufacturing operations, and software development allow him to help manufacturers, retailers, and CPG companies solve their most difficult supply chain issues by breaking down data silos and leveraging modern technologies.

In this livestream, created in collaboration with a live Supply Chain Now audience, Mark, Scott and Greg discussed:

• The ongoing challenge of finding a global workforce that can realistically serve as an alternative to China, given their questionable record on human rights

• The complexity of the global energy supply chain, especially with regards to liquefied natural gas (LNG) and Russia’s continued aggression against Ukraine

• Shortages and disruptions impacting the food supply chain and how they are humanizing the upside associated with investments in agility and digital transformation

• Why companies need to become increasingly sophisticated in their approach to inventory management while also guarding the customer experience
