Decision Intelligence Benchmark: Supply Chain Strategic Priorities for 2027

How supply chain leaders are funding technology and rebuilding their teams in 2027

Supply chain leaders head into 2027 with technology funded and their attention turning to people. Talent now tops the agenda, and plans to reskill and restructure run well above the benchmark average. Budgets are less settled, with cuts as common as increases. Technology spending keeps growing anyway, and so does the pressure to show that AI is paying off.

This report shows where your peers are putting their budgets, attention, and effort next year, and how they’re reshaping their teams to keep up with the technology.

  • Why scaling AI carries the greatest ROI pressure, and the risk that has dropped sharply down the list since last year
  • Why so few supply chain budgets are holding flat, and how many teams are planning to restructure
  • Why technology budgets keep growing even at companies expecting overall cuts, and the other budget line rising with them
  • Why confidence in technology lags the investment, and the threats leaders name most often for 2027
