THE DIGITAL SUPPLY CHAIN ECOSYSTEM
TMX has recruited Matthew Jackson as Head of Digital Supply Chain, spearheading the consultancy’s digital services as part of TMX’s end-toend supply chain offering. He explains why a focus on digital supply chain is a must for all major organisations.
M
atthew Jackson, who has recently joined TMX has its Head of Digital Supply Chain, says while TMX is already well established in Australia and the broader Asia Pacific as a leader in supply chain network strategy and implementation, it is now offering customers a digital supply chain overlay to complement and round out its end-to-end solutions. “TMX is renowned for its solutions in supply chain design and implementation, including major functions like warehouse automation,” Matthew says. “The new digital supply chain team – comprised of people
recruited internally from TMX, as well as externally, like me – provides an offering that touches on all of TMX’s established pillars of expertise, as well its new integrated business planning (IBP) pillar. The goal is to enrich our customers’ end-to-end supply chain through digitalisation.” Matthew says that TMX avoids “cookie cutter” approaches when approaching its clients’ supply chain objectives. Although TMX does much of its own software development, Matthew says the new digital team will work with the best on offer in the marketplace solutions-wise, and
continuously work to improve and develop solutions in concert with a client’s evolving strategy. “We are going to be bringing forward a lot of our newly developed partnerships and alliances in the digital area,” he says. “For us it’s about moving away from any linear approaches, and instead fostering a solutions ecosystem that aligns with a modern data ecosystem.”
HARNESSING DATA & DEVELOPING STRATEGY “Data is at the heart of the digital supply chain,” Matthew says. “Without data, there is no digital element.” MHD OCTOBER 2021 | 25
