The Sessions Shaping How Supply Chain Leaders Think in 2026

Trial 1: Decision Support vs. Autonomous Action

Your Team Was Never Built to Handle 3,000 Exceptions a Day. AI Was.

Detention fees. Missed appointments. Unnecessary expedites. This is what happens when exception volume outpaces human capacity. This session makes the case that autonomous AI handling the routine work isn’t the risk. Waiting is. The jury voted 90% in favor of autonomous action. See why.

Trial 2: Shipment Tracking vs. End-to-End Orchestration

Visibility Without Context Is Just Expensive Noise.

When a truck is stuck, most teams air freight the entire load to avoid a stockout. Orchestration tells you exactly which SKUs are critical, so instead of spending $13,000 to move everything, you spend $1,800 to move what actually matters. That decision plays out across your network every day. The jury voted 80% in favor of orchestration. See why.

Trial 3: Build Your Own Control Tower vs. Buy AI-Powered Network Intelligence

You Can Build It. But Should You?

Building your own control tower feels like the right call. You control the roadmap, the data, and the priorities. But what happens when 18 months in your team is exhausted, adoption is stuck, and the business is still waiting for value? This session makes the case that buying buys you something building never can: time. The jury voted to buy. See why.
