Are you getting the ultimate value from your supply chain visibility tools? Many companies are investing in supply chain visibility systems—and these investments can yield huge benefits, says blogger Richard Sharpe. But, he says, many companies don’t realize they can take things to the next level by using the technology to obtain detailed insights into what’s contributing to profits. That type of insight can provide disruptive competitive advantage, he says. Read about it on Sharpe’s “Analytics & Big Data” blog at http://blogs.dcvelocity.com/big_data/.

FIND THE SONG TITLE; WIN A PRIZE!

Each issue of DC VELOCITY includes at least one headline that alludes to the title of a rock song. It’s a little game readers can play each month: trying to spot the reference.

Starting with this issue, we’re going to turn it into a contest, with prizes. If you think you’ve found the rock reference in the current issue, e-mail us at dcvrocks@dcvelocity.com with the answer by midnight Pacific time on March 31. Include your mailing address.

We’ll randomly select a winner from among the correct entries, and that person will receive a pound of coffee from Joey Kramer’s Rockin’ & Roastin’ Cafe, owned by the drummer of classic rock band Aerosmith and located here in DCV’s HQ city of North Attleboro, Mass. The winner will also have his or her name announced on social media and in print on this page. We encourage winners to share selfies with their prizes at Facebook.com/ dcvelocity and on Twitter @dcvelocity.
