DFM Commentary:
Eric Johnson’s provocative blog article has prompted quite a few responses on both sides of the basic proposition that data shared is more valuable (within limits). His position is that supply chains work best when connected with real time data flows that allow nimbleness and efficiency in decision making and work performed. That is exactly DFM Data Corp.’s solution proposition – let’s share anonymized data amongst the dynamic/digital freight matching marketplace to remove duplicated load and carrier information that has already been booked and confirmed, in order to improve efficiency and decision making. #datasharing #digitalfreightmatching
