The Golden Handcuffs: Avoiding Vendor Lock-In in AI Infra Procurement

02 Feb 2026

The lure of the modern AI accelerator is hard to resist. In the current arms race for compute, a procurement manager’s primary metric for success is often just "getting the chips". When a vendor offers a shipment of high-performance GPUs at a competitive price—or perhaps a subsidised cloud credit package—it looks like a win.

Protecting Workers in Real Time: The Rise of Smart IoT Systems That Monitor Health While Respecting Privacy

23 Jan 2026

Smart wearables and connected sensors make it possible to monitor health, safety and stress levels in real time, offering a powerful way to prevent injury and burnout. While the potential to create a healthier and more productive workforce through the Internet of Things (IoT) is immense, these tools introduce ethical and legal challenges. How can organisations utilise this data to safeguard their teams while respecting their right to privacy?

The Role of Boiler Water Treatment in Maintaining High-Performance Manufacturing Lines

21 Jan 2026

Manufacturing plants depend on many systems working together, and boilers are among the most important. They provide steam generation and heat that keep machines running and processes stable. When boiler water isn’t treated, problems like corrosion, scale deposits, and poor water quality can appear quickly. These issues slow down production, raise costs, and sometimes cause shutdowns. To keep manufacturing lines efficient and safe, boiler treatment is essential.

Closing the Loop: Integrating Waste Recovery Into Circular Supply Chain Models

19 Jan 2026

Supply chains generate significant waste at every stage, from raw materials to finished products, creating both environmental and operational challenges. In fact, nearly 8% of all inventory is discarded each year, at a value of roughly $163 billion. Building a circular supply chain advances sustainability, while helping logistics and operations teams cut costs and strengthen resilience. It also allows these teams to capture value from materials that would otherwise be lost. In this article we explore how integrating waste recovery into circular supply chain models will be a necessity in the future.
