Gartner reported that 55% of chief supply chain officers cannot say what return their AI spending is producing, even though two thirds of supply chain digital budgets now go to AI. The firm attributes this to change management resources being spread evenly across initiatives rather than concentrated on the ones tied to business outcomes. Gartner predicts that by 2030 organizations that allocate change effort deliberately will see twice the return on AI projects.
