We care about every worker in our worldwide supply chain… what we will not do – and never have done – is stand still or turn a blind eye to problems in our supply chain. On this you have my word.
Tim Cook
The supply chain stuff is really tricky.

Eighty-five percent of the reasons for failure are deficiencies in the systems and process rather than the employee. The role of management is to change the process rather than badgering individuals to do better.
W. Edwards Deming

One must standardize, and thus stabilize the process, before continuous improvement can be made.

Put a good person in a bad system and the bad system wins, no contest.

For much of Toyota’s history, we have ensured the quality and reliability of our vehicles by placing a device called an andon cord on every production line – and empowering any team member to halt production if there’s an assembly problem. Only when the problem is resolved does the line begin to move again.
Akio Toyoda, CEO Toyota Motor Company.

The TMS is evolving into a logistics platform that can handle all nodes, all geographies and all transportation nodes. It’s already talking to other applications in the supply chain, like warehouse management, order management and ERP systems. By adding underlying algorithms, a TMS can now understand the relationship between the cost of inventory and the cost of transportation and come up with an optimal solution to answer those questions.
