However, shipment delays are still a top concern, with lead times twice as long as usual.<sup>2<\/sup>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response, manufacturers are adopting solutions that streamline processes. &#8220;As a manufacturer ourselves, we understand the complexities of a global supply chain and we have, in fact, transformed two very complex ones of our own.&#8221; Says <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/authwall?trk=bf&amp;trkInfo=AQH7qGWF21JIAQAAAYD28oqgzHHVpUg88WPhLGoD_k6l4OBYGwDQ4Olen0zSwd5cygOibTs89mOwoE3KvwZbJutyilEZ7yzoi0bcZqqOptrgs2i-rCYfxm8Du6PXCwM_x3N63Mc=&amp;original_referer=&amp;sessionRedirect=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fin%2F%25C3%25A7a%25C4%259Flayan-arkan%2F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Caglayan Arkan<\/a>, Vice President Manufacturing and Supply Chain, Microsoft, in his new series focused on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=SGUP1Q3Bjto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">building a resilient supply chain<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are three ways you can use Microsoft technology to make your supply chain stronger:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Put your data to work.<\/strong> Digitizing your manufacturing processes creates a lot of data, but it\u2019s not necessarily useful. Consider a platform that unifies data from many sources and makes it digestible in real time so decisions are easier. For example, an intelligent priority-based planning tool can help you keep just enough inventory on hand while avoiding stockouts.&nbsp;Learn more by watching our on-demand webinar, <a href=\"https:\/\/mktoevents.com\/Microsoft+Event\/329779\/157-GQE-382\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Manufacturing resilient and sustainable supply chains<\/a>.<\/li><li><strong>Increase collaboration and trust. <\/strong>Invest in your relationships with vendors and logistics partners\u2014you may be able to help each other in ways you haven\u2019t thought of yet. For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/customers.microsoft.com\/story\/1444728231089759998-daimler-trucks-north-america-automotive-dynamics-365\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Daimler Trucks North America (DTNA)<\/a> asked suppliers to share their supply chain data in a vendor collaboration portal to break down siloes. DTNA then analyzed that data using <a href=\"https:\/\/dynamics.microsoft.com\/supply-chain-management\/overview\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Insights,<\/a> part of Microsoft Cloud for Manufacturing, to predict supply shortages.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Predict disruptions independently. <\/strong>Create a digital twin of your supply chain, complete with model scenarios and simulations, to anticipate problems. Then you can automate the best response in advance, saving time when disruptions happen. For example, manufacturers are preventing unexpected equipment downtime using mixed reality and the Internet of Things (IoT) to do proactive equipment maintenance.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-msx-ump-embed wp-block-msx-ump-embed\" class=\"wp-block-msxcm-ump-embed\">\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n\t\t<universal-media-player id=\"ump-69d0460d1e77e\"><\/universal-media-player>\n\t\t<script type=\"module\">\n\t\t\tconst currentTheme =\n\t\t\t\tlocalStorage.getItem('msxcmCurrentTheme') ||\n\t\t\t\t(window.matchMedia('(prefers-color-scheme: dark)').matches ?
