Why Supply Chain Leaders Are Attending Manifest 2026

As supply chain networks grow more complex, execution has become the true differentiator.

Speed, reliability, safety, and cost control no longer hinge on planning systems alone. They depend on how consistently work gets done across the network, especially at the points where transportation, warehousing, and labor intersect.

That is why supply chain and logistics leaders across manufacturing, CPG, retail, and distribution are heading to Manifest 2026.

The Execution Gap Is Still Real

Over the past decade, organizations have invested heavily in transportation management systems, warehouse automation, and visibility platforms. These tools have improved planning, tracking, and analytics. But for many enterprises, the same question remains unanswered:

Why does execution still break down on the ground?

The gap often appears at handoff points, where responsibility shifts between systems, teams, and vendors. Nowhere is this more visible than in the yard.

Yards play a central role in controlling flow, labor efficiency, asset utilization, and safety. Yet they are frequently managed through a patchwork of outsourced services, manual processes, and disconnected tools. The result is inconsistent performance across sites, limited accountability, and hidden operational costs that compound at scale.

Why Manifest Is the Right Place for This Conversation

Manifest brings together operators, technologists, and decision-makers who are focused on solving real-world execution challenges, not just showcasing new platforms.

Attendees come to learn how peers are:

• Addressing labor constraints and safety risk in high-velocity environments

• Moving beyond visibility toward execution and control

• Connecting people, processes, equipment, and data into cohesive operating models

• Scaling performance across large, complex supply chain networks

Manifest centers on end-to-end supply chain flow. That makes it especially relevant for enterprise shippers and operators who are responsible for execution across multiple facilities.

At YMX Logistics, we help enterprise organizations rethink the yard as a system, not a collection of disconnected services or tools.

Our approach integrates people, processes, equipment, technology, and data into a unified operating model designed to deliver consistent execution, cost control, safety, and sustainability at scale.

• See how leading organizations are creating consistent yard execution across multi-site networks

• Learn why an operating system approach reduces variability, delays, and unplanned cost

• Understand how yard activity and data influence upstream and downstream decisions across transportation and the warehouse

• Explore how safety and sustainability become part of execution when they are built into the operating model

If you are evaluating how yard operations support — or limit — broader supply chain performance, this is a conversation worth having at Manifest 2026.
