SUMMARY:The Post-Peak Parcel Roast Hosted by ProShip
DESCRIPTION:Peak season is over\, which means it’s finally safe to talk about what actually happened. Whether your operation sailed seamlessly through the last several months or limped across the finish line with a few band-aids and bruises\, this webinar is your chance to unpack the chaos with people who truly get it. \nJoin ProShip’s panel of shipping experts for a lighthearted (but painfully honest) roast of real-world peak season parcel strategy flops you won’t forget. We’ll break down the most surprising\, costliest\, and most head-scratching peak season slip-ups submitted by registrants that made us laugh\, cringe\, and rethink everything. You’ll walk away entertained and equipped with practical expert guidance to help you close operational gaps and reframe your parcel strategy for the 2026 peak season. \nWhether you’re brave enough to confess your own peak season fails (yes\, we’ll reward your courage) or simply want to watch the fun unfold\, you’ll learn: \n\nThe biggest peak season mistakes even top-tier shippers still make (think carriers\, automation\, costs\, labeling\, integration\, business rules\, and more)\nHow to identify and fix the hidden cracks that peak season loves to expose\nThe tech blind spots silently draining budget and how to shut them down\nWhat agile pivots leading shippers made and how to apply them to your strategy\n\nWarning: We can’t promise your pride will survive unscathed\, but the resulting improvements will be worth the heat. Peak season may be unpredictable\, but your parcel strategy doesn’t have to be. Join us!

SUMMARY:From Insight to Action: The Agentic Supply Chain
DESCRIPTION:Supply chain execution is undergoing a fundamental shift. As complexity accelerates and disruptions become the norm\, reactive\, rule-based systems can no longer keep pace. \nIn this SupplyChainBrain webinar\, leaders from EPG and NVIDIA explore how agentic AI is transforming logistics from insight-driven visibility into autonomous\, intelligent execution. \nJoin EPG CEO Peter Bollinger\, EPG Americas’ President Jett Chitanand\, and NVIDIA’s Developer Relations Manager\, Wilfried Rakow\, as they examine how real-time AI infrastructure and next-generation execution platforms work together to observe events\, interpret context\, simulate outcomes\, and take action. \nLearn how the transition from reactive logistics to autonomous supply chains is unfolding\, and what it means for supply chain leaders planning the next era of performance and resilience. \nWhat you will take away:\n– Why reactive logistics systems are reaching their limits\n– How vision AI and real-time data create operational awareness\n– What agentic AI means for supply chain decision-making\n– Why autonomy requires both AI infrastructure and execution platforms\n– How leaders can begin the journey toward intelligent\, autonomous supply chains \nSpeakers:\nWilfried Rakow\, Developer Relations\, NVIDIA\nPeter Bollinger\, CEO\, EPG (Ehrhardt Partner Group)\nJett Chitanand\, President\, EPG Americas\, EPG (Ehrhardt Partner Group) \nModerator:\nHelen Atkinson\, Managing Editor and Host\, SupplyChainBrain

SUMMARY:WEBINAR – You Can’t Automate Chaos: Scaling Procurement with AI-Native Orchestration\, presented by OMNEA
DESCRIPTION:Procurement teams are often trapped in ‘intake chaos’ – chasing fragmented requests across Slack and email while struggling to maintain compliance and visibility. As organizations scale\, this manual ‘busywork’ prevents procurement from moving beyond a reactive administrative function to becoming a true strategic partner. \nIn this fireside chat\, James Rafferty\, Head of Procurement at Thumbtack\, joins us to share how he transformed their procurement process into a seamless\, guided experience. By moving away from legacy ‘AI-bolted-on’ tools toward an AI-native approach\, Thumbtack has streamlined how requests enter the business\, ensuring every spend and risk check is handled with precision from the start. \nThe conversation will explore how Omnea’s conversational intake and agentic AI act as a ‘strategic front door\,’ steering employees toward preferred suppliers while automating the complex orchestration of legal\, risk\, and finance approvals. We’ll discuss the shift from managing manual workflows to delivering measurable outcomes – including drastically reduced cycle times and enterprise-wide value realization. \nAttendees will gain practical insights on: \nThe ‘Front Door’ Strategy: Why intelligent intake is the foundation of procurement value – capturing the full picture in the fewest steps to eliminate time-consuming follow-ups.\nAI-Native vs. AI-Bolted On: Understanding the difference between basic automation and agentic AI that handles the heavy lifting of supplier assessments and stakeholder summaries.\nDriving 100% Adoption: How Thumbtack created a process so intuitive that employees actually love using it\, ensuring shadow IT is tackled and compliance is built-in by design.\nMeasurable Outcomes at Scale: What a successful transformation looks like in practice\, from accelerating contract reviews to achieving a single source of truth for every supplier.\nThe Future of AI SRM: Lessons learned from Thumbtack’s journey in moving from fragmented systems to a unified\, AI-powered supplier relationship management platform. \nSpeakers:\nJames Rafferty\, Thumbtack\nBen Freeman\, Omnea

SUMMARY:One Year Later: The Year Tariffs Took Over Trade
DESCRIPTION:Tariff Stacking\, Section 232 Updates & Practical Strategies for Today’s Importers. \nIn April 2025\, sweeping tariff actions reshaped global trade. For many importers\, the complexity hasn’t slowed down since. Tariff stacking\, evolving Section 232 measures\, and overlapping duty programs are increasing costs\, creating greater uncertainty\, and making compliance decisions more difficult. Now the Supreme Court’s IEEPA ruling is driving further change. \nIn this practical session\, Star USA’s trade compliance experts go beyond policy to focus on real-world application. You’ll see how tariffs interact\, where companies get caught off guard\, and how to approach decisions with more confidence and control so your team can move from reacting to planning. \nDuring this session\, you will learn about:\nWhat tariff stacking really looks like and why it’s catching companies off guard\nThe current state of Section 232 and its impact on importers\nStrategic implications of the Supreme Court’s IEEPA ruling\nHow multiple tariff programs can apply to a single product\nKey Section 122 considerations\nReal-world examples of navigating today’s layered tariff environment

SUMMARY:WEBINAR – The Autonomous Intelligent Supply Chain: What Procurement Must Do Now to Build Resilience and Agility by JAGGAER & BearingPoint
DESCRIPTION:The Autonomous Intelligent Supply Chain: What Procurement Must Do Now to Build Resilience and Agility \nGlobal supply chains are under unprecedented strain. According to a global survey of 620 senior executives across the US\, Europe\, and China\, over 80% experienced major disruptions in the past two years: freight instability\, regulatory shifts\, trade tariffs\, and geopolitical volatility are accelerating disruption cycles from decades to days. \nYet most organizations remain reactive: Only 10% have fully embedded geopolitical risk into supply chain governance. Just 8% have fully integrated AI-driven planning and orchestration into their supply chain strategy. \nThe future belongs to Autonomous Intelligent Supply Chains: intelligent\, predictive\, and collaborative ecosystems built for constant disruption. \nIn this session\, BearingPoint will reveal: Why diversification and multi-tier visibility (86%) are now the dominant resilience strategy. Why cloud (69%) and AI (50%) are the top investment priorities for the next wave of transformation. Where procurement capability gaps remain — especially in smart procurement and orchestration tools (26%). \nProcurement leaders will walk away with a clear roadmap for shifting from efficiency-driven sourcing to adaptive\, risk-intelligent orchestration. \nMeet the Speaker(s): Chetan Rangaswamy is a Partner at BearingPoint with over 25 years of industry and consulting experience\, specializing in corporate strategy\, operations\, and procurement transformation. Based in Chicago\, he leads the U.S. business and advises Production Industries clients on operational excellence\, digital transformation\, and supply chain optimization. Prior to joining BearingPoint\, Chetan held leadership roles at The Hackett Group\, GEP\, and Accenture\, and began his career at Ingersoll Rand after earning an engineering degree from Ohio University.
