ICP Intelligence February 2026: Supply Chain

Industry in Industrial & Logistics

What are the most persistent challenges and motivations in the Supply Chain sector? Analysis of the Supply Chain sector reveals a static yet highly engaged landscape, with no significant shifts detected in the last six months across key factors. Stakeholder alignment remains exceptionally strong at 5.00/5, coupled with robust Growth at 4.87/5, indicating a segment driven by internal consensus and expansion. However, core pain points persist, primarily around the errors and risks associated with paper-based processes and the mismatch of existing field technologies for non-office workers. This population distinctly segments into two behavioral clusters: a dominant Low-Technology / Low-Data group (73.3%) struggling with these foundational issues, and a smaller High-Technology / High-Data group (26.7%). Despite high growth and stakeholder buy-in, the consistent prioritization of making mobile apps simpler and faster than paper, alongside empowering farm workers, suggests a sector still grappling with fundamental operational digitization.
