5 Megatrends That Will Reshape Global Supply Chains in the Next Decade

In tandem with the launch of Global Value Chain Solutions, BDO released a whitepaper exploring five megatrends that will transform global supply chains over the next decade—and what businesses need to know to prepare and adapt:

  1. Accelerating connectivity, innovation & uncertainty: With the world becoming increasingly connected, no business will be isolated from global events. This will create new opportunities to unlock value, but also increase the risk for supply chain disruption.

  2. Shifting regulatory environment: Over the next decade, the global regulatory environment will grow more complex as countries implement new policies to achieve a variety of goals. Keeping a finger on the pulse of these ongoing developments will be key to keeping the global supply chain compliant.

  3. Increasing supply chain transparency & due diligence: The ability to track where all goods are in the supply chain — and where they came from — will be crucial in an era where disruption is common and often unpredictable. Proactive transparency and data sharing will be key tactics in a successful global supply chain strategy.

  4. Evolving customer expectations: Customer expectations are changing rapidly, which presents risks to those companies unwilling to change and opportunities to those willing to evolve their business models — and supply chains — in line with those expectations. Building authentic relationships will be key to customer loyalty.            

  5. Meaningful advancement of Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) issues: Demonstrable commitment to environmental, social and governance factors has become integral to supply chain management. Regulation aside, companies are being called upon by stakeholders to substantiate their ESG strategy, goals, and measurable progress throughout their entire supply chain.
