À propos de ce contenu audio

The Resilient Supply Chain Podcast is where global leaders tackle the future of supply chains, and how to make them stronger, smarter, and more sustainable.
Hosted by Tom Raftery, technology evangelist, sustainability thought-leader, and former SAP Global VP, the show features C-suite executives, founders, and innovators from across the world’s most influential companies. Together, we explore how organisations are building supply chains that can withstand shocks, adapt to change, and lead in a decarbonising economy.
Every Monday at 7 a.m. CET, new episodes drop - packed with real insights, not PR fluff.
From supply chain resilience and risk mitigation to AI-driven visibility, circular design, and ESG transformation, we unpack the data, systems, and strategies shaping global operations.
You’ll hear from the people actually doing the work - the ones leading on:
  • Business continuity and crisis response
  • Scope 3 emissions and supply chain sustainability
  • Digital twins and predictive resilience
  • Ethical sourcing and due diligence compliance
  • Nearshoring, automation, and future-ready logistics
Because a supply chain can’t be sustainable unless it’s resilient, and it can’t be resilient unless it’s sustainable.

  • AI in Supply Chain Resilience: Finding Your Single Point of Failure
    Mar 2 2026

    Send me a message

    Is your supply chain one nut away from failure?

    In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain podcast, I’m joined by Jonathan Doller, Senior Solution Consultant at Logility (now part of Aptean), to explore how AI is reshaping supply chain resilience - beyond the hype, and into real operational impact. At a time of tariff shocks, port disruptions, climate risk and talent pressure, the question isn’t whether to use AI, but how to use it intelligently.

    You’ll hear how AI can distinguish correlation from causation in forecasting - including a case where a company stopped discounting a Mother’s Day product and saw no drop in demand, only improved margins. We break down why constrained inventory allocation may be AI’s real superpower, and how agentic AI can connect demand, supply, and distribution decisions across the network. And you might be surprised to learn why Jonathan compares fragile supply chains to the “Jesus nut” on a helicopter, a single point of failure with no redundancy.

    We also explore supplier visibility, digital readiness assessments, anti-fragility, and why AI should be treated as infrastructure, not a buzzword.

    🎙️ Listen now to hear how Jonathan Doller and Logility are redefining data-driven, resilient, sustainable supply chains.

  • AI and Supply Chain Resilience: Smarter Supplier Selection
    Feb 23 2026

    Send me a message

    In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I’m joined by Ricky Ho, Founder of SourceReady, to explore how AI is reshaping sourcing, supplier discovery, and supply chain resilience in an era of tariff shocks, sanctions risk, and geopolitical uncertainty.

    We unpack why sourcing is still stubbornly relationship-driven, and why that’s becoming a structural risk. You’ll hear how AI can scan customs data, certifications, sanction lists and even supplier-of-supplier exposure to surface risks most teams never see. We break down why over-concentration in one country isn’t just a cost issue, but a resilience issue, and how AI can proactively flag dependency before disruption hits.

    Ricky explains how automation can handle the heavy lifting of supplier outreach, tariff analysis, and compliance checks, while humans retain accountability and judgement. You might be surprised to learn how granular today’s customs visibility really is down to individual shipments, and what that means for transparency.

    If supply chain resilience, sustainability, supplier risk, and data visibility are on your radar, this conversation is for you.

    Listen now to hear how Ricky and SourceReady are rethinking AI’s role in building more resilient, diversified supply chains.

  • Why Supplier Data Is Breaking Supply Chain Resilience
    Feb 16 2026

    Send me a message

    Over 50% of companies say they’re getting garbage supplier data. Over 40% never hear back at all.
    And we’re basing ESG disclosures, compliance filings, and climate targets on that?

    In this episode, I’m joined by Lily Hogan, Senior Product Manager at 3E, to unpack why supplier data remains one of the biggest hidden risks in supply chain resilience and sustainability. In a world of tightening regulation, PFAS bans, digital product passports and rising scrutiny, visibility isn’t optional. It’s survival.

    You’ll hear how a “simple” mobile phone can involve outreach to a thousand suppliers. We break down why email and Excel are still powering global compliance workflows in 2026. And you might be surprised to learn that 98% of the world’s population now carries traces of PFAS, a stark reminder of how upstream risk becomes downstream impact.

    We explore how regulatory complexity is accelerating, why siloed data collection is undermining resilience, and how AI and digital product passports could finally reduce friction instead of adding to it. Because if you can’t trust your supply chain data, you can’t trust your risk model.

    Listen now to hear how Lily Hogan and 3E are reshaping supply chain resilience through smarter sustainability data and real visibility.
