Such pressure is often caused as a result of customer expectations; such as the need for tailored experiences, unique orders, faster deliveries, and even an expanded selection of products and services.
Apart from consumer pressure, there are also lingering issues caused by the global pandemic, which started in 2020.

In addition, with the added pressure to maintain profit margins and survive, businesses are forced to reevaluate the complexity of their supply chain and determine which operations must go and which can stay or be improved on.

This calls for greater collaboration between partners and deeper visibility for businesses to better control every process involved in their logistics operations.
