CEP - how to adapt to a volatile market

CEP services are challenged to plan and execute their operations in an increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous business environment (‘VUCA’). For logistics networks, it is of greater and greater strategic importance to include a VUCA foresight into corporate planning and operations. Services that understand and analyze changing scenarios based on a combination of real-time insights and predictions will have dramatic strategic and operational advantages. A new paradigm is emerging here. The integration of non-linear circumstances into corporate planning models will increase the resilience of operators, even in a VUCA world.
