What’s Happening in the US
Rethinking logistics network design in the US
In the United States, rising logistics costs, shifting demand patterns, and higher service expectations are reshaping how supply chain networks must operate. Many logistics footprints were built for a more predictable environment and now require a more flexible and data-driven approach. Optimizing the logistics network footprint enables US organizations to improve efficiency, reduce total landed cost, and build more resilient, competitive supply chains.
AI as a competitive advantage in US health insurance
Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming how health insurers compete in the United States. Faced with rising costs, growing member expectations, and increasing operational complexity, insurers are turning to AI to improve efficiency, strengthen risk assessment, and deliver more personalized experiences. When embedded across core processes, AI enables US health insurance organizations to enhance performance, support better outcomes, and build a more resilient and competitive operating model.
