This technical report discusses the challenges and strategies related to data integration in supply chain transformation. It outlines how poor data access and quality can hinder supply chain efficiency and responsiveness. The report emphasizes that organizations are increasingly pressured to enhance their supply chain resilience and cost-effectiveness through digital transformation. However, many face obstacles such as limited data access, integration issues, and reliance on outdated legacy systems. The report highlights findings from IDC's 2024 Worldwide Supply Chain Survey, which indicates that a significant barrier to transformation is the difficulty in identifying and integrating high-quality data. It also notes the emergence of low-code solutions and data integration tools that can facilitate self-service data management, thereby accelerating transformation efforts. The report concludes that successful supply chain transformation relies heavily on the quality and accessibility of data, which is essential for leveraging advanced technologies like AI and decision intelligence.
