  06-10-2026 19:30 via logisticsviewpoints.com
  
  A Decision Intelligence shortlist should not begin with vendor demos. Providers are arriving from planning, optimization, visibility, risk, networks, enterprise suites, orchestration, and AI-native architectures, and without a category framework a shortlist can become a collection of impressive but fundamentally different products.
  Inventory the decisions that are slow, fragmented, poorly contextualized, or overly dependent on manual coordination. For each one, document frequency, consequence, t

  For the past few years, transportation executives have had to manage through one disruption after another: excess capacity, collapsing rates, driver shortages, rising fuel costs, fraud, cargo theft, shifting regulations, and increasingly demanding customers.What struck me during the transportation management discussion I moderated at the Descartes Innovation Forum was how quickly another issue has moved to the center of the conversation: technology, and particularly AI, is becoming part of the o

• Agentic AI Is Moving From Supply Chain Experimentation Into Operational Work

  06-10-2026 16:00 via logisticsviewpoints.com
  
  Executive thesis. Agentic AI becomes consequential when software can take action, not merely generate an answer. That makes authority, permissions, observability, and recovery the defining architectural questions.
  The important word is agency
  An AI assistant can summarize, recommend, and answer questions without changing the state of the business. An agent is more consequential because it can pursue a goal through a sequence of actions—gathering context, calling tools, evaluating results,
