William's back for the 200th episode with a super-secret special guest!

Wir sprechen heute natürlich über das was an diesem Wochenende bei der Leichtathletik WM abging und über die zahlreichen WMs die gestartet sind. Aber vor allem möchte ich über die Rad-WM sprechen denn niemand in Deutschland hat mehr Expertise, was den Radsport angeht, als mein heutiger Gast. Er war ist einer der größte deutschen Sportler, war im Radsport tätig und es sollte klar werden, wenn ich seine Erfolge kurz aufliste: Weltmeister 1999 und 2001, Olympiasieger im Straßenrennen 2000 und Vizeolympiasieger im Zeitfahren 2000. Und natürlich der Tour de France Sieg 1997. Jan Ullrich ist heute mein Gast im Team D Update Podcast.

Pour l'épisode de cette semaine, je reçois Philippe Romano, cofondateur et CEO de KBRW.KBRW, c'est une solution logicielle spécialisée dans les systèmes de gestion de commandes (OMS) et de gestion d'entrepôts (WMS) à destination des grands comptes, avec une forte présence dans des secteurs comme le luxe, l'automobile, l'alimentaire ou encore la grande distribution spécialisée.Au cours de cet épisode, nous sommes revenus sur le parcours de Philippe, de ses débuts dans le B2C avec Shopping Adventure à la création de KBRW et son pivot vers le B2B. Il nous explique comment ils ont su séduire de très grands comptes (8 clients du CAC 40 !) sans jamais lever de fonds, en restant bootstrap, et en investissant dans la haute performance technique, la fiabilité en production et la flexibilité produit.On a parlé de :la transformation des supply chains,la montée en puissance du modèle Product-as-a-Service,la place de l'IA dans l'order management,l'importance du go-to-market indirect avec les intégrateurs,la stratégie d'internationalisation,et bien sûr, de la vision long terme de KBRW.Un échange passionnant avec un fondateur lucide, exigeant et structuré, qui construit un éditeur critique pour les plus grandes entreprises européennes.Vous pouvez suivre Philippe sur LinkedIn.Bonne écoute !Mentionnés pendant l'épisode :KBRWSAFe – Scaled Agile FrameworkRégis Medina – Expert LeanPour soutenir SaaS Connection en 1 minute⏱ (et 2 secondes) :Abonnez-vous à SaaS Connection sur votre plateforme préférée pour ne rater aucun épisode

In this episode of Interlinks, Patrick Daly is joined by Eoin Conway, CEO of Canary 7, a warehouse management systems software solutions provider based in Cookstown, Northern Ireland. Canary 7 services 3PLs across the U.K., U.S., Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland, and specializes in integrating systems, labour and order management, and increasingly advanced AI and automated decision‑making tools.The conversation explores how recent developments—Brexit (especially the Windsor Framework), labour scarcity, e‑commerce volatility, and advances in technology—are reshaping what it means to run efficient, resilient warehouses and logistics networks in the island of Ireland and beyond.We dig deep into what 3PLs are getting right and where they often misstep: starting with technology first rather than process, guessing rather than defining the problem, under‑estimating internal change management, and over‑investing in automation without clear ROI. Eoin walks us through use cases already live—machine learning models for clustering and slotting, integration of automated systems with WMS, and the promise (and limits) of what might soon be “autonomous decision‑making” in the warehouse.We also contrast the size, specialization, and flexibility challenges of smaller Irish operations versus U.K./U.S. fulfillment centres, particularly around handling demand spikes and balancing generalist versus specialist models.From a macro‑to‑micro strategist lens, this episode illustrates how geopolitical constructs (e.g. the trade status of Northern Ireland, shifting trade barriers from Brexit) cascade down into operational realities—labour costs, warehousing location, cross‑border flows. But it's in the micro‑decisions where competitive advantage is really made or lost: how you redesign your processes, cleanse your data, define precisely what you want to solve, choose when automation or AI makes sense, and how you build flexibility or elasticity into systems.If you're interested in exploring how macro-level dynamics can be translated into actionable strategies for your business, I invite you to connect with me via LinkedIn or through my website at www.albalogistics.com.You can also join the conversation on this episode and others in the Interlinks series on Reddit at r/InterlinksPodcast.

In “AI Literacy in Logistics with Gather AI's Andrew Hoffman”, Joe Lynch and Andrew Hoffman, CTO at Gather AI, discuss how artificial intelligence is transforming warehouse operations by using visual data from drones and other machines to identify issues, suggest next steps, and ultimately improve efficiency and accuracy. About Andrew Hoffman Andrew Hoffman is the Chief Technical Officer at Gather.ai, an AI-powered intralogistics optimization firm that empowers 3PLs, manufacturers, and retailers to improve margins and on-time order fulfillment in the widest range of logistics environments - from ambient to cold chain storage. Andrew has technical and leadership experience scaling supply chain-focused robotics companies from founding to exit, with over 20 patents in logistics, robotics, and robot coordination. He was a founding engineer at two supply chain robotics companies which were later acquired by Amazon – Kiva Systems (now Amazon Robotics) and CANVAS Technology. Most recently, he served as an Entrepreneur in Residence at tech-focused venture capital firm, Xplorer Capital, a Gather AI investor. About Gather AI Gather AI is an intralogistics AI company which collects visual data from drones, forklifts, and connected machines, integrates it with warehouse management systems (WMS) and cloud platforms, and uses AI to identify issues and suggest next steps. Key Takeaways: AI Literacy in Logistics In “AI Literacy in Logistics with Gather AI's Andrew Hoffman”, Joe Lynch and Andrew Hoffman, CTO at Gather AI, discuss how artificial intelligence is transforming warehouse operations by using visual data from drones and other machines to identify issues, suggest next steps, and ultimately improve efficiency and accuracy. AI as a Co-Pilot, Not a Replacement: The podcast reframes artificial intelligence as a collaborative tool that amplifies human capability. Much like a calculator assists a mathematician, AI acts as a "co-pilot" in the warehouse, providing real-time data and insights that enable staff to work more efficiently and accurately. Demystifying Core Concepts: The discussion breaks down key industry terms, clarifying the relationship between artificial intelligence (AI) (the broad field of intelligent machines) and machine learning (ML) (the specific technique of systems learning from data). It also defines computer vision as the ability of a machine to "see" and interpret a warehouse environment. Proven ROI and Real-World Results: The episode highlights a concrete case study with Stadium Goods, a customer of Gather AI. By using the company's solution, they increased inventory accuracy to over 99%, reduced "inventory shrink" from 2% to a fraction of a percent, and saved over $200,000 by eliminating manual counting. Actionable Insights from Data: The conversation explains that AI systems learn from data over time, allowing them to transform complex data queries into natural language questions. This helps warehouse staff make better decisions on the fly, such as locating a specific pallet or finding an empty space in an aisle. The Collaborative "Agent": The concept of an "agent" in AI is reframed from a technical term to a collaborative entity. Gather AI's system—the drone, software, and computer vision—works as a partner to the warehouse staff, providing the data needed for faster, more accurate decisions and freeing up employees for more valuable tasks. A Leader with a Track Record of Innovation: Andrew Hoffman's background as a founding engineer at two logistics robotics companies, both later acquired by Amazon, establishes his deep expertise. His journey offers valuable insight into the past and future of scaling technology in the supply chain industry. A Clear Path to Getting Started with AI: For listeners looking to begin their AI journey, the podcast recommends starting with a pilot project to solve one specific problem, such as cycle counting. It also advises seeking partners who offer a comprehensive solution and a clear path to return on investment, rather than just a technology.

For Chief Operating Officers, CFOs, and heads of warehousing, logistics, and retail across Asia, 2026 will be defined by one overarching theme: strategic resilience through intelligent automation. The region's blistering e-commerce growth, coupled with persistent geopolitical and supply chain volatilities (as highlighted by analysts like BCG regarding the fragmentation of global trade), is forcing a fundamental rethink of operational models.By 2026, we will see the full maturation of trends nascent in 2024. AI and machine learning will transition from pilot projects to the core operational nervous system of high-performance warehouses. Their primary role will be predictive: forecasting demand spikes with greater accuracy, pre-empting maintenance on automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and robotics to prevent downtime, and dynamically optimising inventory placement to slash picking times and maximise cube utilisation.In this PodChats for FutureIoT, we are joined by Ms Vivien Tay, APAC Vertical Lead for Warehousing, Transport & Logistics, Zebra Technologies.1.       At the operational level, briefly describe the business environment today from the perspective of the supply chain. 2.       Given the fragmentation of global trade routes, how are organisations in Asia leveraging AI and data analytics to build more regionalised and resilient supply chains to mitigate geopolitical risks?3.       How are enterprises integrating predictive analytics into daily operations to move from reactive problem-solving to pre-empting issues in inventory management, maintenance, and order fulfilment?4.       Given that most organisations have existing warehouse management systems (WMS), name one proven approach for integrating new AI-powered software with existing legacy systems without causing disruptive downtime.5.       Beyond labour displacement, can you share a proven approaches/framework for measuring the full ROI of automation investments, including improved accuracy, enhanced safety, reduced shrinkage, and increased employee retention?6.       Many technologies fail as they move from pilot to scale, how can organisations ensure that the automation technologies they implement today are scalable and flexible enough to adapt to unpredictable demand cycles and future business growth?7.       With increasing focus on ESG, how are organisations using automation to measure and reduce their carbon footprint through optimised energy use, waste reduction, and smarter inventory planning?8.       As operations become more reliant on connected IoT devices and AI, what enhanced cybersecurity measures can be implemented to protect against operational shutdowns and data breaches?9.       How is investment in real-time visibility technology directly translating into a superior and more transparent customer experience for e-commerce and retail partners?10.   Our topic is strategic resilience through intelligent automation what is your advise for warehousing and supply chain leaders in 2026?

Our guest on this week's episode is Manish Kapoor, founder and CEO of Growth Catalyst Group. Since we have passed the mid-summer mark of 2025, retailers are now focused on the next dates on the retail calendar – and that's back to school season. This is traditionally the second busiest season of the retail year. But like everything in supply chains in 2025, this year has not been normal. Our guest helps us find out how retail supply chains are coping and what we can expect over the coming weeks.A new industry-sponsored program is designed to inspire next generation of supply chain leaders. Girl Scouts of the USA and contract logistics provider DHL Supply Chain have launched the "Solutions Superstar" program to advance critical thinking and problem-solving skills for K-12 girls and to introduce them to supply chain careers. A modern distribution center or fulfillment center is often full of automation at many different levels. It might have robots like AMRs and AGVs, dense storage like an AS/RS, and software platforms like an ERP or WMS system. But often, each of those units operates by itself, or it takes orders from just one source, like the WMS software. And that can make it hard for them all to work together as a team. But lately, we've been seeing progress in the industry toward fixing that situation.  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 has just started on Top Threats to our Supply Chains.

Send us a textSupply chain suites distinguish themselves from traditional ERP and analytics platforms by being specifically designed to meet the intricate needs of supply chain-intensive industries. These industries depend on tightly integrated processes that span forecasting, procurement, logistics, and fulfillment, requiring systems that prioritize supply chain performance rather than treating it as an ancillary function. Supply chain suites address this by offering a unified architecture that blends network planning, execution systems like WMS and TMS, and advanced analytics. This specialized focus enables organizations to enhance agility, minimize lead times, and build resilient, responsive supply chains. In this episode, our host, Sam Gupta, discusses the top 10 supply chain suites in 2025. He also discusses several variables that influence the rankings of these supply chain suites. Finally, he shares the pros and cons of each supply chain suite.Background Soundtrack: Away From You – Mauro SommFor more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs. rocks or elevatiq.com.

Send us a textThe Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) category occupies a distinct space within enterprise technology, serving supply chain-intensive industries like retail and manufacturing with capabilities that traditional ERP systems simply cannot match. While ERP platforms manage transactional processes, S&OP suites focus on high-level strategic planning, offering advanced tools for forecasting, demand-supply balancing, and inventory optimization. Built around core pillars such as planning, network design, and limited execution functionalities like WMS and TMS, these platforms are designed to support long-term, macro-level decision-making. Increasingly, modern S&OP solutions are expanding into “connected planning,” integrating with HR, financial planning, and retail functions to create a unified planning ecosystem. When evaluating S&OP systems, factors like market positioning, product roadmap maturity, investor backing, and industry fit become crucial, as each platform brings its own strengths depending on architecture and planning philosophy. Selecting the right solution hinges on understanding how well it aligns with your organization's complexity and strategic goals.In this episode, our host Sam Gupta discusses the top 10 S&OP systems in 2025. He also discusses several variables that influence the rankings of these S&OP systems. Finally, he shares the pros and cons of each S&OP system.Background Soundtrack: Away From You – Mauro SommFor more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs. rocks or elevatiq.com.

Send us a textSelecting the right WMS requires a deep understanding of both business needs and the diverse capabilities of available solutions. Some WMS platforms are purpose-built, offering specialized functionalities as standalone systems, while others operate as integrated modules within broader ERP ecosystems. This distinction is critical, as generic solutions may lack the advanced features necessary to address unique operational challenges. Businesses must assess WMS solutions beyond rankings, considering how well they align with industry-specific requirements and operational models. Shippers, including manufacturers, distributors, and retailers, benefit from systems tailored to conventional workflows, whereas 3PL providers require specialized capabilities such as value-added services and billing functionalities. By focusing on long-term scalability and operational fit, businesses can choose a WMS that drives efficiency and growth.In this episode, our host Sam Gupta discusses the top 10 WMS systems in 2025. He also discusses several variables that influence the rankings of these WMS systems. Finally, he shares the pros and cons of each WMS system.Background Soundtrack: Away From You – Mauro SommFor more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs. rocks or elevatiq.com.
