The Covid-19 outbreak has revealed new levels of weakness in America’s supply chains. From missing medical equipment to a strain on trans-Pacific trade, our supply chains are being hit in ways that put public safety at risk. As a result, we are all reassessing what we thought were the best practices in supply chain management. We’re also seeing great heroic acts from an army of people that help move our necessary supplies every single day.

Because Tive is the leading provider of in-transit supply chain tracking solutions, we like to talk about how the Tive sensor and software solution gives companies real-time access to comprehensive in-transit data throughout their supply chain.
