Finding the One Thing That Can Break Your Supply Chain

Send me a messageIs your supply chain one nut away from failure?In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain podcast, I’m joined by Jonathan Doller, Senior Solution Consultant at Logility (now part of Aptean), to explore how AI is reshaping supply chain resilience - beyond the hype, and into real operational impact. At a time of tariff shocks, port disruptions, climate risk and talent pressure, the question isn’t whether to use AI, but how to use it intelligently.You’ll hear how AI can distinguish correlation from causation in forecasting - including a case where a company stopped discounting a Mother’s Day product and saw no drop in demand, only improved margins. We break down why constrained inventory allocation may be AI’s real superpower, and how agentic AI can connect demand, supply, and distribution decisions across the network. And you might be surprised to learn why Jonathan compares fragile supply chains to the “Jesus nut” on a helicopter, a single point of failure with no redundancy.We also explore supplier visibility, digital readiness assessments, anti-fragility, and why AI should be treated as infrastructure, not a buzzword.🎙️ Listen now to hear how Jonathan Doller and Logility are redefining data-driven, resilient, sustainable supply chains.Support the showPodcast supportersI'd like to sincerely thank this podcast's generous Subscribers:Alicia FaragKieran OgnevGary LynchAnd remember you too can become a Resilient Supply Chain+ subscriber  - it is really easy and hugely important as it will enable me to continue to create more excellent episodes like this one and give you access to bonus episodes of topical, timely supply chain resilience analysis.🎤 Looking for a keynote speaker on supply chain resilience, AI, and sustainability?I help leaders understand the forces reshaping global supply chains, from geopolitical disruption and climate risk to AI and real-time decision-making. Download my Speaker Pack: https://tinyurl.com/spkrpckFinallyIf you have any comments/suggestions or questions for the podcast - feel free to just send me a direct message on LinkedIn, or send me a message using this link.If you liked this show, please don't forget to rate and/or review it.
