The 120-mile link between the Red Sea and the Mediterranean is traversed by an average of around 50 ships a day and almost 19,000 annually. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This accounts for around twelve percent of total global trade. The delays that global supply chains have experienced and will continue to experience as a result of this incident will have far-reaching consequences. <\/p><div id=\"great-944683113\" class=\"great-fullsize-content-en\" style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=6yfv7eho3Gc\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Fullsize\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150.jpg\" alt=\"Fullsize\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-400x50.jpg 400w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-768x96.jpg 768w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-100x13.jpg 100w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-480x60.jpg 480w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-640x80.jpg 640w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-720x90.jpg 720w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-960x120.jpg 960w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-1168x146.jpg 1168w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-18x2.jpg 18w, https:\/\/e3mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/banner_26_04_08_1200x150-600x75.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" width=\"1200\" height=\"150\"  style=\" max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>From ports to docks to distribution centers, all logistics processes are being shaken up. The likelihood of supply chain disruptions can be predicted with artificial intelligence. While no AI in the world could predict this specific event, technology is still an essential part of the solution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can make data-based decisions within minutes and reroute flows of goods so that supply chains do not come to a complete standstill. Manually, the process of rescheduling can take several man-days in the event of a major disruption such as this accident. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just gathering the necessary data is very time-consuming. With AI, this process can be automated and alternative procurement routes found without the need for human intervention. Companies that rely on such advanced technology therefore have a significant competitive advantage due to the speed of data-based decisions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They help ensure that assembly lines in factories don't stand still and goods remain available for delivery. Blue Yonder, which recently won an unrivaled award from Gartner for its Luminate portfolio, advocates thinking ahead. By investing in a modern supply chain solution, they say, they can avoid expediting costs that would otherwise be far higher.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The blockade in the Suez Canal by the container ship \"Ever Given\" is a wake-up call for all those who have not yet heard the shot.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":38,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"pmpro_default_level":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2,39280],"tags":[963],"coauthors":[19920],"class_list":["post-74010","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sap-nachrichten","category-mag-21-05","tag-supply-chain","pmpro-has-access"],"acf":[],"featured_image_urls_v2":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","image-100":"","image-480":"","image-640":"","image-720":"","image-960":"","image-1168":"","image-1440":"","image-1920":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","trp-custom-language-flag":"","bricks_large_16x9":"","bricks_large":"","bricks_large_square":"","bricks_medium":"","bricks_medium_square":"","profile_24":"","profile_48":"","profile_96":"","profile_150":"","profile_300":""},"post_excerpt_stackable_v2":"<p>Die Blockade im Suezkanal durch das Containerschiff \u201eEver Given\u201c ist ein Weckruf f\u00fcr alle, die den Schuss noch nicht geh\u00f6rt haben.<\/p>\n","category_list_v2":"<a href=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/category\/sap-news\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Community Nachrichten<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/category\/mag-21-05\/\" rel=\"category tag\">MAG 21-05<\/a>","author_info_v2":{"name":"E-3 Magazine","url":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/author\/e-3-magazin\/"},"comments_num_v2":"0 comments","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74010","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/38"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=74010"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74010\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=74010"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=74010"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=74010"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/e3mag.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=74010"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
