Supply chain management has seen considerable change in the last several years, with recent technological advancements prompting both new opportunities and new challenges. In 2019, several trends we've observed in other industries will begin to dominate the supply chain sphere. Many of these trends are expected to improve both efficiency and customer service. Others, however, could be cause for concern. All call for a more flexible approach, in which systems evolve alongside the rapidly shifting market.
Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics makes the answer clear: the need for skilled professionals is climbing, the median pay is attractive, and you don’t have to have extensive experience to land a great job.
