Let's Talk Supply Chain

240: Do you use Excel? with Boardwalktech, Inc


Listen Later

Today I’m joined by Boardwalktech, a super exciting and innovative developer of transformational enterprise information management technology solutions. Their solutions enable better visibility, collaboration, alignment, and compliance capabilities for your extended value chain so you can make more insightful and actionable decisions, faster.

Boardwalktech were the first to develop a now patented positional data management technology. And they were also the first to deliver a Digital Ledger database designed for collaborative, secure, and compliant multi-party enterprise applications — both disruptive offerings in the market.

Today Andrew Duncan, president and CEO at Boardwalktech, joins me to chat all about the company: what they do; using digital to transform supply chain; combining legacy systems with new technologies; and the power of innovation.

 

IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:

 

[05.43] An introduction to Andrew, his Silicon Valley background and how he came to join Boardwalktech.

“Living in Silicon Valley my whole life, you kind of catch the bug with regard to technology and building companies!”

[06.58] All about Boardwalktech – what they do, and how they help their customers.

“The bottom line is that most companies are still using Excel to run their businesses – it’s astounding!”

[10.52] A closer look at Boardwalktech’s Digital Ledger Technology, and how it’s changing the game in supply chain.

“Having a digital ledger that has a time element to it is a critical component of anyone’s go-forward supply chain strategy.”

[13.53] Digitization, intellectual property and how Boardwalktech is extracting value from legacy systems and utilizing it, without fundamental business change.

[21.28] Unstructured data, and the power of collaboration.

“When you automate collaboration and you move the data into a single version of the truth… it helps people move to a decision point much faster.”

[25.52] The importance of on-going innovation, and the huge potential to be found in low code application platforms.

“Low code application platforms are very exciting – it really is the future, with developers in such short supply.”

[28.47] The ideal client for Boardwalktech.

[30.48] A case study, showing how the Boardwalktech platform drastically reduced response time to increase sales by 35% for a key customer.

[35.57] The future for Boardwalktech.
