Best, The Equinix TeamHow are you dealing with the current supply chain constraints?
With the pandemic wrecking havoc on supply chainsacross the world and a global semiconductor shortage, how is your company dealing with issues in supply chain? I pulled a few quotes from the articles below that highlighted how bad the problem is hitting our industry: "The top five challenges IT departments face in fulfilling their IT hardware demands are insufficient request information (37%), single vendor reliance (32%), vendor-enforced order limits (32%), opaque delivery timeframes (30%), and employees not returning their systems (30%)." "GetApp discovered that 78% of the respondents faced an IT hardware supply chain delay in the past 12 months, including from Dell (50%), Microsoft (47%), and Apple (43%). 71% of respondents are experiencing shipping delays of up to six months, and 52% have waited between four to 13 months." Here are a few articles addressing the supply chain issues: https://www.spiceworks.com/tech/hardware/news/it-hardware-supply-chain-disruption/ https://www.gartner.com/en/articles/the-big-shortage-lessons-from-2021-on-how-to-navigate-supply-constraintsMeet the Product Managers!
