  The New Logistics Advantage — Part 4 of 9
  Enterprise supply chain software is still purchased largely by category. Companies buy planning systems, TMS, WMS, OMS, trade applications, visibility tools, and specialized execution platforms. Those categories remain useful because they define functional depth, ownership, and buyer expectations.
  But categories are becoming a less complete description of how value is created. A growing share of important supply chain problems cannot be solved insi

• Oracle’s Supply Chain Strength Is the Connection to the Enterprise

  Oracle’s supply chain proposition is fundamentally an enterprise architecture proposition. Rather than treating planning, transportation, warehousing, analytics, and finance as separate domains, Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM is designed to connect them through a common cloud environment and shared enterprise data model.
  That matters as supply chain decisions become more cross-functional. A transportation decision changes cost. An inventory decision changes working capital and service. A warehous

  Executive thesis. The control-tower market is crossing an architectural boundary. Visibility solved the first problem; decision latency is becoming the more consequential one.
  Visibility is no longer the control tower’s defining capability
  The first generation of supply chain control towers was largely about visibility: collect events from multiple systems, display them in one place, and give operators a broader picture of the network. That was useful, but it also exposed the limitation of

• Meta Muse Is Not a Consumer AI Story. It Is a Supply Chain Architecture Story

  Meta’s Muse has been treated largely as a consumer technology story. That is understandable. Launched on September 8, Muse can send emails, book travel, shop, perform multistep tasks, and execute transactions on behalf of its users. Reuters reported that the application generated roughly 2.8 million downloads in its first 12 days, while Meta is offering free access alongside $20- and $100-per-month subscription tiers. Investors have responded enthusiastically, and the inevitable debate has

• Harness Engineering in Logistics: From Agents to Engineered Workflows

  24-09-2026 13:00 via logisticsviewpoints.com
  
  Harness Engineering in Logistics — Part 4 of 6
  The phrase “AI agent” encourages us to focus on the actor. Give the model a goal, connect a few tools, and allow it to work. That framing is useful for demonstrations, but it is the wrong starting point for logistics operations. The more useful unit of design is the workflow.
  A logistics process is rarely one decision. It is a sequence of events, checks, transactions, and handoffs tied to physical reality. The agent may perform sev
