However , Gunner predicts the implementation of supply chain solutions is going to get tougher before it gets easier as organisations unearth new challenges . “ You can ’ t manage , what you can ’ t measure ,” he warns , “ though Adjuno is already providing solutions for the more forward-thinking retailers . If the sustainability-oriented user group we ran last year is anything to go by , we ’ ll see a number of retailers collaborating and sharing best practice to leverage each other ’ s work for mutual gain . It ’ s certainly an area where the competitive and political challenges are far less prevalent .”
It ’ s why Gunner believes the future is bright . “ We want to grow and remain profitable while delivering an exciting roadmap of products – all oriented around intelligence and predictive analytics . From a market perspective , we want to understand what people are challenged with and find ways to help overcome those obstacles to deliver renewed efficiency and sustainability .”
