Order Management Systems - where they came from and where they are going ... read my latest blog Every technology market follows a predictable arc. In the early stages, buyers tolerate complexity because they have no alternative: the problem is new, the solutions are immature, and having any tool at all feels like progress. As the market matures, buyers accumulate experience and learn which capabilities actually drive value and which features are expensive noise. They stop asking “which product has the most features?” and start asking “which product solves my problem with the least friction?” That shift in buyer behavior reshapes the vendor market, often brutally. We are in that era - the FOURTH Era of Order Management ...

We've found a way to metricate trust: IntegriQA provides a unique approach to monitoring supplier behaviour continuously across onboarding and delivery. Every supplier gets ratings that form part of an enduring and ongoing trust profile. This way, buyers can see how easy a supplier might be to do business with based on their trust ratings. No more opaque supplier! No more 'how good is this supplier really?' type questions! Trust rating is a continuous process; it's also transparent to all on the IntegriQA platform. This is the difference IntegriQA offers: trust becomes a scorable observable dimension you can use to filter and find those suppliers that meet your expectations.

That’s why the world’s largest retailers trust people like Robert Iaria and Cam Rotsart to manage and optimize their entire resale strategy and execution. Well deserved recognition.

An article from 1997 that's still shaping supply chain conversations in 2025? More than 25 years ago, Marshall Fisher wrote “What Is the Right Supply Chain for Your Product?”—a piece that feels just as relevant in today’s era of AI, nearshoring, and constant disruption. Fisher’s insight was elegantly simple: 1. Functional products need efficient supply chains. 2. Innovative products need responsive supply chains. Sounds obvious? Maybe. But many businesses still get this wrong—and pay the price in the form of stockouts, excess inventory, or margin leakage. From fashion retail to electronics to FMCG, aligning product type with supply chain strategy remains one of the most impactful levers for performance. #SupplyChain #HBRClassics #MarshallFisher #OperationsStrategy #BusinessFundamentals #LinkedInNewsIndia #AIInSupplyChain #Innovation #Logistics #Resilience #SupplyChainDesign
