INNOVATION DROP Summer '26

The Future of Supply Chain is Here!

There's always another trading partner to win, another channel to open, another spike in volume waiting on the other side of growth. The opportunity is real. What holds teams back is the risk that comes with it: the next connection could break something before anyone catches it. So teams play it safe. Retailers miss sales that should have been easy wins. Brands eat the chargeback instead. Today, AI is raising the bar for what customers expect from their supply chain: faster answers, fewer blind spots, decisions made before the damage is done. These new products meet that moment.

The Future of MAX

MAX is intelligence built into the SPS network, working inside the tools your team already uses. It watches orders, shipments, and invoices, answers questions grounded in real trading-partner behavior, and flags what needs attention before it costs you. You stay in control. MAX flags it, you decide.

The Future of Fulfillment

Fulfillment connects at the speed your growth demands, not a countdown built to win a demo. New trading partners connect already understanding what each retailer requires, double-checked against everything the network has already learned. Growth doesn't have to mean more integration work or more places for something to break.

Speed, Flexibility, Control

The Future of Analytics

Brands make high-impact decisions every day, but when sales and inventory data are fragmented, teams are forced to react instead of plan. Decision Intelligence turns fragmented sales, inventory, and item performance data into a clear, connected foundation teams can act on.

The Future of Manufacturing

Most manufacturers have already automated the sell-side. The supplier and co-manufacturer side, the inbound half of the business, still runs on manual work. Completing that connection from one network is where the next efficiency gain is.
