#103: The First Mile Advantage – with Nick Daly of Gravity Supply Chain

from Leaders in Tech and Ecommerce · host Alcott Global

*Hosted by Andrei Palamariu*II’m joined by Nick Daly, COO of Gravity Supply Chain, to explore one of the most overlooked parts of global supply chains: the first mile. Drawing on his experience on the operations side of logistics and sourcing, Nick explains why risks often emerge 60 to 120 days before a shipment reaches the port of origin, and why seeing them early can completely change the decisions teams are able to make. We discuss factory-level visibility, proactive decision-making, supplier performance, hidden “shadow economies,” change management, AI-powered exception handling, and the limits of autonomous decision-making. At its core, this is a conversation about moving supply chains from reacting to problems to seeing them early enough to do something about them.Discover more details here.Follow us on:Instagram: http://bit.ly/2Wba8v7Linkedin: https://bit.ly/4hbidqoFacebook: http://bit.ly/2HtryLd
