Send me a messageWhat if your supply chain could spot a breakdown before it happened?In this episode of The Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I'm joined by Taylor Smith, Chief Marketing Officer at Honeywell Productivity Solutions and Services, and Elton Saunders, Senior Director of Solutions and Services at Peak Technologies. Together, we explore how AI, data, and proactive maintenance are transforming resilience, from the warehouse floor to the C-suite.You'll hear how leading manufacturers are shifting from reactive firefighting to predictive prevention, using tools like Honeywell's Operational Intelligence and Peak's Mobile Insights to monitor device health in real time. We unpack the hidden risks of downtime and why something as simple as a worn-out battery can ripple across global operations.Taylor explains how design decisions, from battery-free scanners to circular repair programmes, are making equipment more sustainable and less wasteful. Elton shares how data-driven insights can extend device life, cut costs, and even pre-empt security threats before they hit production. You might be surprised to learn how AI is now being used to detect anomalies, forecast battery failure, and automate maintenance workflows, turning resilience into a competitive advantage, not just a cost line.Listen now to hear how Honeywell and Peak Technologies are redefining proactive maintenance, and why the future of resilient supply chains is predictive, not reactive.Podcast supportersI'd like to sincerely thank this podcast's generous Subscribers: Christian Sederberg Kristal Maharaj Alicia Farag Kieran Ognev And 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 the full back catalog of over 460 episodes.Podcast Sponsorship Opportunities:If you/your organisation is interested in sponsoring this podcast - I have several options available.

There are sweeping flight delays and shutdowns at major airports across the country, including five in California, due to the air traffic controllers not being paid. It may be impacting passenger planes, but it also affects the supply chain and cargo planes, which means your Temu and Amazon packages may not make it to your front step. Credit card balances are getting so bad, and the collective debt is at a record high of $18 trillion. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Our guest on this week's episode is Noel Thomas, founder and CEO of Dark Watch. Without even knowing it, many companies with extended supply chains may participating in human trafficking and forced labor. It exists around the world and even here in the United States where people are manipulated into modern forms of slavery. What can we do to protect our supply chains and company reputations, while more importantly helping these most vulnerable people? Transportation and logistics provider Ryder System, Inc. is doing its part to address the issue of human trafficking in the supply chain. Ryder is hosting a mobile exhibit on the issue at its Fort Worth, Texas, Transportation Management Center today. The event is for Ryder employees, local law enforcement, and public officials and it features the Freedom Drivers Project (FDP); this is a national mobile exhibit developed by the nonprofit group Truckers Against Trafficking (TAT), which is an alliance of trucking industry companies, law enforcement, and government agencies.We've heard a lot about cargo theft lately, and that's not surprising, given that there is so much freight moving around the country on any given day. The latest report we saw from the theft prevention firm CargoNet shows that many thieves are focusing their efforts on only the highest value cargo shipments. Supply Chain Xchange  also offers a podcast series called Supply Chain in the Fast Lane.  It is co-produced with the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals. A new series is now available on Top Threats to our Supply Chains. It covers topics including Geopolitical Risks, Economic Instability, Cybersecurity Risks, Threats to energy and electric grids; Supplier Risks, and Transportation Disruptions  Go to your favorite podcast platform to subscribe and to listen to past and future episodes.

A majority of Irish organisations have enhanced cybersecurity measures in recent months yet under-investment in key areas of training and compliance, ongoing talent shortages and AI-powered cyber threats continue to be areas of concern for Irish cyber leaders. That's according to EY Ireland's inaugural Cyber Leaders Index, which surveyed 165 of Ireland's senior cyber leaders with a particular focus on the corporate, health and life sciences and government sectors. 83% of Irish cyber leaders report enhancing cybersecurity measures over the past six months, with nearly a third (32%) noting an increase in budgets, while two thirds (67%) report investment holding steady. However, more than 70% of cyber leaders report difficulties securing budget for staff cyber awareness training. 43% cited challenges in securing budget for hiring and retaining skilled personnel, which remains a key challenge for cyber leaders. Nearly half (48%) of cyber leaders identified AI and data security as a top priority for the year ahead, and many organisations are adapting their practices in response to the EU AI Act. Yet 44% say they face challenges securing budget for AI-related security initiatives, suggesting that investment is not keeping pace with strategic intent. This may reflect internal competition for AI budgets, rather than reluctance to invest in cybersecurity, and embedding cybersecurity into AI efforts positions the function as a driver of growth and advantage. Almost seven in ten (68%) of respondents said that protecting against supply chain and vendor-related threats is a top priority within their cybersecurity programmes, however only 4% identify third-party vendor risk as one of their main concerns. Compliance with relevant regulations and data privacy laws such as NIS2 was cited as a priority by 39% of respondents, while the EU AI Act is also having an impact with nearly half (47%) of the leaders surveyed stating they have updated their data handling and monitoring practices and four in ten (39%) having updated their data protection impact assessment systems. Puneet Kukreja, Technology Consulting Partner and Head of Cyber at EY Ireland said: "In an AI-driven world where algorithms and code are reshaping both attacks and defences, cyber risk is no longer something to eliminate, it must be managed with precision. This shift demands that cyber leaders evolve from engineers and managers to architects of trust, with a seat and a voice at the top table where strategic decisions are made and budgets are shaped. Cyber threats are escalating, with major breaches reported almost every week, and it's clear that defences are only as strong as their weakest point. Yet investment is not always going where it matters most, with gaps in staff training and talent retention remaining areas of concern." Carol Murphy, Consulting Partner and Head of Markets at EY Ireland said: "Irish organisations are strengthening their cyber resilience, with most reporting enhanced defences and stable or increased budgets. The challenge now is to direct that investment towards people and partnerships, ensuring teams are trained, supported and equipped to manage the growing demands of compliance and third-party risk. Organisations must prioritise the continuous training and wellbeing of their cyber teams, recognising that resilience depends as much on people as it does on technology." Burnout Risk As Cyber Threats Remain A Top Concern Burnout and fatigue amongst cyber leaders have been identified as growing resilience risks for Irish organisations, with 37% of those surveyed reporting concern about the gaps in their organisation's cyber risk coverage. More than one in four (26%) of respondents reported negative impacts on their mental health. Puneet Kukreja said: "Our research shows that stress is fast becoming a hidden cyber risk for organisations. Cyber risk is constant, and that unrelenting pressure is taking a toll on the people who defend against it. Burnout does...

Angela Woody talks about her career journey; learning to let go of inherited beliefs; making IT investments; & the guiding principles that have shaped her life. IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [04.09] Angela's coincidental career – how volunteering at an event led to an internship that led to a full-time role at Kimberly-Clark. "It was a happenstance!... Someone took a chance on me." [08.41] Angela's 13-year tenure at Kimberly-Clark: how her career progressed, what she learned, and her biggest achievements. "Working for a global manufacturing company, you just had a wealth of opportunities… There was an opportunity to work on a first-of-a-kind project… and on that project, I could be innovative, experimental – it was career-changing." [14.21] Why Angela made a move from large CPG to small healthcare business, and how she changed her assumptions around what a stable, long-term career should look like. [17.45] What Angela loves about supply chain. "Supply chain is not a flashy job! … It's dirty, and for some reason that sparked my intertest... Supply chain is the last thing that's going to touch a product before it's delivered to the customer, that's our responsibility – and I fell in love with that." [21.40] How the pandemic shone a light on the industry, and why hesitation to make capital investments in IT systems is one of the biggest challenges in supply chain right now. "2020 was a blessing in disguise for supply chain. It brought some immediate visibility into how fragile our global supply chain really is – and it finally became a topic in the boardroom." "The companies that are truly making the investment in IT, making the investment in upgrades, they're the ones that are winning." [24.40] Why change management is still such a big problem, and how businesses should be approaching it for success. "Change management takes focus, time, resources and empathy. Change management is one of the most underleveraged capabilities, and I've seen many IT transformations fail because of a lack of investment in it." [27.40] Angela's 'Bring Your Kid To Work Day' experience with her daughter, and how we engage the upcoming generations in supply chain. "I have two girls, and I want to be a role model for them. I want to show them they can do anything they set their minds to, as long as they work hard." [31.31] Angela's experience as a woman in supply chain and technology. [35.15] The guiding principles that have shaped Angela's success, in life and work. [36.08] The importance of mentorship, and how Angela supports the next generations. "When I first started, mentorship wasn't something that was available, or even discussed… So, as we've evolved, and have seen its importance, I've taken male and female mentees and worked with them to have an opportunity to talk about things – I wish I had that." [38.35] The future for Angela. "I've worked hard to be where I am, but the feeling you get when you spend time out in the community and truly give back, is very special to me."

A tiny, overlooked component is bringing giant assembly lines to a halt. We dig into the Nexperia saga—European control, Chinese export blocks, and a packaging choke point—and explain why the “boring” diodes and transistors tucked into door locks, HVAC, and wiper motors matter as much as any cutting-edge processor. When each vehicle hides 300 to 600 of these legacy chips, one missing part can park an entire line, and that's exactly what Honda, Volkswagen, and Nissan are starting to face.We connect the supply chain dots to real-world outcomes: reduced shifts, delayed models, and dealer backlogs. Then we pivot to a sharp recalls roundup, where Ford's record-setting year meets moonroof deflectors, defrost issues, and camera failures, while tires and lighting glitches hit other brands from Cadillac to Fiat and Ferrari. It's a tour of what happens when quality, parts availability, and service capacity collide—and what owners can do now to stay safe and informed.For a breather, we fire up Name The Sold Car Price, comparing a 1952 Studebaker Commander, a 1965 MGB, an '85 F-250, a 2002 Thunderbird, and a stunning 1936 Packard 120. You'll hear what moved, what stalled, and what these numbers say about condition, provenance, and taste. We also map the calendar for Veterans Day cruise-ins, toy drives, and big regional shows—community checkpoints where car culture thrives, knowledge spreads, and enthusiasts help each other keep their machines on the road.If you care about how cars are built, why they break, and where the culture is headed, this conversation brings clarity and a few laughs.

In this episode of Supply Chain Now, Scott Luton welcomes Alex Pillow, Senior Director of Partnerships & Acquisitions (Corporates & Government Unit) at Moody's and host of the podcast KYC Decoded, for a practical breakdown of how “know your customer” (KYC), third-party due diligence, and third-party risk management map directly onto modern supply chain realities. Alex demystifies integrated risk assessment, connects KYC practices to supplier onboarding and end-tier visibility, and shares where orchestration logic and high-quality data (master data management, beneficial ownership, and external risk signals) meaningfully cut time-to-decision.Alex explores today's most active threat patterns: organized fraud at scale, cyber supply-chain intrusions, and freight fraud, and how to translate visibility into action with clear mitigation pathways. Alex also spotlights lessons from investigative journalism (think massive crypto heists executed via vendor compromises), a “good team vs. bad team” mindset for program design, and why continuous improvement or the “infinite game” is the only sustainable posture for risk leaders. If you're building or leveling up TPRM and supply chain risk programs, this episode is a masterclass in combining people, data, and tooling to get ahead of disruption.Jump into the conversation:(00:00) Intro(01:27) Meet Alex Pillow from Moody's(02:14) Alex's podcast KYC Decoded and personal insights(04:49) Marathon training and personal goals(07:56) Understanding Moody's and integrated risk assessment(12:46) What is KYC and why is it important?(17:04) Parallels between KYC and supply chain management(26:09) Fraud and cybersecurity risks(31:59) Combating financial crime and corruption(34:08) Challenges faced by regulators and practitioners(35:34) The role of vendors and consultants(36:22) The Infinite Game: A call to action(39:09) Mindset shift for risk mitigation(42:48) The importance of a risk-based approach(47:54) Building a successful digital transformation toolkit(55:27) The impact of cybercrime on supply chainsAdditional Links & Resources:Connect with Alex Pillow: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alex-pillow/Check out the KYC Decoded podcast: https://www.moodys.com/web/en/us/insights/podcasts/kyc-decoded.htmlLearn more about Moody's: https://www.moodys.com Connect with Scott Luton: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottwindonluton/Learn more about Supply Chain Now: https://supplychainnow.com Watch and listen to more Supply Chain Now episodes here: https://supplychainnow.com/program/supply-chain-now Subscribe to Supply Chain Now on your favorite platform: https://supplychainnow.com/join Work with us!

At the heart of The Prophets' vision are “The 24 Essential Supply Chain Processes.” What are they? Find out, and see the future yourself. Click here Every strong supply chain starts with strong talent, and at Wayne State University, that's exactly what's being built. This episode takes listeners inside the General Motors and Wayne State Supply Chain Case Competition, where students from across the country step into real-world challenges and learn what it takes to lead the industry's future.The conversation opens with Lori Sisk from Wayne State University, who introduces the FAST Program (Future Advantage Supply Chain Training), a groundbreaking initiative designed to expose Detroit high school students to the world of supply chain management long before college.Lori explains how the program combines classroom learning with hands-on experience, allowing students to graduate with a certificate in supply chain and a clearer path toward college or immediate industry work. She's joined by two standout students from the program, Malik and Jeffrey, whose stories bring the program's impact to life.Jeffrey recalls how little he knew about supply chain before joining, but after a summer internship with WF Whelan, he found himself fascinated by the behind-the-scenes logistics that keep goods moving.Malik adds that what surprised him most was how many steps it takes to make something as simple as a roll of tissue. He says that getting hands-on at each stage gave him a new appreciation for the complexity and teamwork involved in manufacturing. Both now see supply chain not just as a career option, but as a field full of opportunity and purpose.Then comes Chris, a graduate of the Automotive Supply Chain Immersion Program (ASCIP), a 20-week course co-led by AIAG and Wayne State. For him, the program went far beyond the classroom. It provided him with direct access to industry leaders, real-world learning experiences, and a network of mentors who helped him view the supply chain from an entirely new perspective.The focus shifts to the General Motors and Wayne State Supply Chain Case Competition itself, with GM's Bill Hurles and Dave Leich. They recount how the program began in 2011, shortly after GM's bankruptcy, as a way to strengthen the industry's talent pipeline. What started as a small idea has now evolved into a global event, drawing universities from across North America, Mexico, and beyond. Student competitors Danielle Griffin and Daniel Kuzniar then share their perspective on tackling this year's case, focused on EV adapter sourcing for GM's Factory Zero. They explain how teamwork, diverse expertise, and late-night preparation sessions helped them stay composed under pressure.Finally, Lori Sisk and GM's Christina Meredith take listeners behind the scenes of organizing the event. From coordinating sponsors to creating an unforgettable Detroit experience, their shared goal is clear: showcase the city, connect students to industry, and grow the future of manufacturing talent.Themes discussed in this episode:The FAST Program's role in introducing Detroit high school students to real-world supply chain experienceThe role of Wayne State University in developing the next generation of supply chain professionalsHow partnerships between universities and industry leaders like GM strengthen the talent pipelineThe value of the AIAG–Wayne State Automotive Supply Chain Immersion Program in advancing professional growthHow case competitions prepare students to solve real industry challenges with creativity and collaborationHow industry-university partnerships help Detroit remain a global hub for supply chain education and manufacturing growthThe case competition's lasting impact on students, sponsors, and...

It all started when he tried to buy a simple bookcase and found the process "medieval"!In this episode, you'll discover:How thousands of underused CNC machines across the country are the key to building a "virtual factory" for on-demand, localized manufacturing.The inefficiency of the current $20 billion cabinet industry and how the new model is selling at "essentially half of market price".The true meaning of "efficiency as inherently ethical" and why eliminating waste is conserving more than just materials.Why the architecture and design-build process is fundamentally wasteful and how precision down to four decimals can solve major industry conflicts.The long-term vision for construction—from CNC-cut casework to a future where custom design doesn't equal "great expense".Listen now to see how a "hard digital link" is about to change everything from lead times to labor bottlenecks and project risk.Check out Baru: https://www.hellobaru.com/ and Tino Go on linkedin.Check out olczakgroup.com and get in touch with Zach via zach@olczakgroup.comMusic Attribution: Music I use: https://www.bensound.com, Artist: Roman Senyk, License code: JTB152H82KPEU1ZL

Hey everyone—it's Steve Edwards here, and in this episode of JavaScript Jabber, I'm joined by returning guest Feross Aboukhadijeh, founder of Socket.dev, for a deep dive into the dark and fascinating world of open source supply chain security. From phishing campaigns targeting top NPM maintainers to the now-infamous Chalk library compromise, we unpack the latest wave of JavaScript package attacks and what developers can learn from them.Feross explains how some hackers are even using AI tools like Claude and Gemini as part of their payloads—and how defenders like Socket are fighting back with AI-powered analysis of their own. We also dive into GitHub Actions vulnerabilities, the role of two-factor authentication, and the growing need for “phishing-resistant 2FA.” Whether you're an open source maintainer or just someone who runs npm install a little too often, this episode will open your eyes to how much happens behind the scenes to keep your code safe.

Every product a company ships depends on thousands of tiny decisions happening deep inside the supply chain. But most organizations are still making those decisions using stale spreadsheets, fragmented systems, and guesswork. In this episode, we explore how AI-driven procurement intelligence is changing the game – moving teams from reactive firefighting to proactive supply chain planning. Our guest today is Shardul Shah, cofounder of Veritos.AI. He breaks down the hidden risks inside modern supply networks, why so many companies still lack real-time component and supplier visibility, and how better data can prevent shortages, backorders, and costly redesigns before they happen. We discuss:Why most organizations still rely on Excel for procurement decisionsThe real reason supply chain disruptions keep catching teams off guardHow AI and real-time data can alert teams to risks ahead of timeThe growing need for operational visibility across engineering, finance, and sourcingHow procurement becomes a strategic advantage, not just a cost center If you're responsible for building products, managing vendors, scaling hardware, or supporting manufacturing operations, this conversation will change how you think about supply chain intelligence and the future of procurement. Watch Next: https://youtu.be/OI0zRk7Mau4?si=7k0htLXyYJIWolpY Key Moments:0:00 Who Shardul Is & Why This Matters2:10 The Problem That Sparked Veritos.AI6:06 Why Procurement Visibility Is Broken15:55 How Veritos.AI Works (High-Level Overview)19:40 Why Supply Chain Is So Hard to Manage22:30 Identifying Alternative Parts & Replacements26:43 Real Example: The Power of Component Visibility29:00 The Role of AI in Modern Procurement35:15 The Current State of Procurement (And Its Challenges)38:50 The Biggest Skill Gap in Procurement: Understanding Cost46:00 The Disconnect Between Engineering & Procurement50:40 The Future: AI-Powered Procurement Command Centers -- This episode of IT Visionaries is brought to you by Meter - the company building better networks.
