Bridging the Digital Skills Gap in Supply Chain: Take Action Now
Are You Hiring for the Future of Supply Chain?
Supply chain executives talk about digitization and automation, but the hiring data does not match. A recent report of 925 supply chain job postings revealed that:
Only 6.5% of the jobs mention automation although automation is one of the greatest challenges that organizations encounter.
Only 1.6% reference AI, although 40% of companies are spending money on generative AI.
More than half of job postings (54.3%) require software knowledge, but very few of them are related to data analytics, AI or automation.
However, the gap does not end there. Only 12% of the U.S. employees use AI daily, and 58% have never used AI at all. This is because without the right talent, the digital initiatives will not produce the desired outcomes.
