Inflation continues to have a wide-ranging impact on supply chains, notes Blue Yonder survey


Inflation’s impact is easing, but disruptions are not. Those are two of the high-level highlights from Blue Yonder’s 2024 Supply Chain Executive survey, released this week.

According to respondents, only 36% of U.S. organizations cited cost of materials as the area most impacted by inflation, down from 43% in 2023. Globally, respondents cited transportation (38%) and cost of materials (34%) as the business areas most impacted.

Disruptions remain the biggest concern, cited by 84% of global businesses, and 85% of U.S. organizations, although the U.S. number continues to drop from 87% last year and 88% in 2022.
