As the world grows ever more interconnected, modern manufacturers are embracing a mentality of collaboration and transparency to stay competitive. This means adopting new tools and technologies that help companies access and share key data and insights regarding their supply chains. In this recent op ed with Supply Chain Brain, we discuss the ways in which new data sharing technologies are making an impact throughout the supply chain industry.

Specifically, companies are using a variety of tools - from new multi-sensor trackers to API-powered integrations - to make it easier to share data across teams and stakeholders. With these solutions, it becomes possible to access location and condition data in real time, easily distribute that data to key players both internally and externally, and integrate that data into existing systems.

For example, if a sensitive shipment of perishable goods experiences a temperature excursion, always-connected sensors can provide the exact time and location of the temperature spike, in real time. That information can then be made available on a cloud-based platform, where it can be accessed by anyone who needs it. Finally, with API integrations into existing ERP or WMS systems, it becomes even easier to view and act on key in-transit data.

Ultimately, these new tools are all about enabling and encouraging a mindset of openness and sharing across teams and partners. When manufacturers embrace this collaborative approach through adoption of data sharing tools and strategies, the whole company enjoys the benefits of increased efficiency and improved customer experience.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
