WITHOUT LOGISTICS: INDUSTRIAL EDITION
Every late delivery is more than a delay. It can put an entire project at risk. This report explores how industrial supply chains are being redesigned for reliability in a world of constant disruption.
WHEN LOGISTICS WORKS, THE WORLD WORKS
Industrial supply chains move the equipment, machinery and materials that power infrastructure and industry. But under the strain of disruption, delivery timelines are slipping and project milestones are harder to meet.
Without Logistics: Industrial Edition explores how companies are responding to persistent volatility in their supply chains. The report reveals what disruption is costing in both money and time, and where logistics investment is beginning to shift performance.
WHEN TIME SLIPS, SO DO PROJECTS
Disruption has become a constant in industrial logistics. The sector sees more than 17,000 incidents each year. The average incident costs around US$695,000 and total annual losses exceed US$12 billion.
The impact is often measured in months, not days. More than half of cargo owners lose over a month of operational time in a disrupted year. Another 42% take longer than a month to recover. These delays can cascade across long project cycles, affecting site readiness, commissioning windows and contract schedules.
KEY STATISTICS REVEALED
Our research shows where disruption is hitting hardest and how industrial goods companies are beginning to respond.
INSIDE THE REPORT
Explore the insights showing how industrial companies are building more reliable supply chains from border clearance to final delivery.
THE PLANNING PROBLEM
Confidence in resilience remains high. But lead time volatility and supplier unreliability continue to cause delays. The report explores how better forecasting, visibility and upstream reliability can close the gap.
THE COST OF TIME LOST
Delays in logistics do not just impact delivery. They stall site readiness, disrupt project timelines and increase commercial risk.
INVESTMENT IN MOTION
From transport flexibility to logistics technology, companies investing in the right areas are reducing disruption costs and building performance into their networks.
