Cloud Supply Chain Management Market Drivers

The growing adoption of cloud-based solutions among travel and transportation enterprises is expected to drive growth in the cloud SCM market:

The global transportation network and supply chains are becoming increasingly complex as a result of fragmented channels, increased product variations, and customer demand for customised solutions. Furthermore, the global supply systems necessitate too many setups or modifications in transportation, incurring secondary costs for enterprises, which raises the investment cost. The increase in complexity and extra costs forces businesses to adopt end-to-end supply chain visibility, such as a cloud-based supply system for transportation management. The cloud-based SCM system in transportation enables enterprises to connect, engage, and collaborate with customers, business partners, and suppliers. It also assists businesses in developing a secure, dependable, and integrated transportation management system that provides real-time information to customers. These advantages boost the growth of cloud-based SCM systems in transportation management and will drive the global cloud supply chain management market in the future. In March 2021, Oracle Fusion Cloud Supply Chain & Manufacturing (SCM) offering, which connects shippers' supply networks with an integrated suite of cloud business applications, has received new updates.

Cloud Supply Chain Management is cost effective and this is expected to boost market growth:

Even as transactions move online, businesses remain acutely aware of the laws of supply and demand. Indeed, the increasing competition in the online markets provided by Cloud-based supply chain management technology now adds a broader range of features and pricing benefits for service users. Through the sheer scale of the Cloud, businesses are able to cut costs while expanding capabilities and expanding their customer base. Maintaining full-scale data storage network management software and integrating it with local systems, including the hiring of system administrators, consumes a sizable portion of company's budget in the form of hours, wages, and equipment. The Cloud solution spreads costs across all users, whether small or large corporations or sole proprietorships, and broadens market capabilities to everyone, regardless of size.

Cloud Supply Chain Management Market Challenges

The factors restraining the cloud supply chain management market are the rapid increase in privacy and security concerns among enterprises, which is causing issues with data segregation among enterprises:

The factors restraining the cloud supply chain management market are the rapid rise in privacy and security concerns among enterprises, which is causing issues with data segregation. Unauthorized use, which can be intentional or unintentional. The most common cause is that employees may use untested or unauthorised cloud services, causing the entire SCM system to fail. If the cloud system is accessed via an API, the interface is insecure (application programming interface). Today, the API can automate almost all intercompany transactions that can be exposed to the outside world. Inadequate access management can manifest itself in two ways. The first is due to an insufficient credentials policy, which does not require strong passwords or frequent updating. The second way is through a risk known as Shadow IT, which is a rogue IT system.
