Supply Chain Challenges & The Future of Logistics: Full Tilt Joins Industry Expert Panel

Cris Novich, Managing Director of Full Tilt Transportation, recently participated in a three-person expert panel focused on the supply chain challenges impacting the global, national, and local economies. The event was hosted by Commercial Real Estate Women (CREW) and brought together industry leaders to discuss the ongoing disruptions affecting logistics, transportation, and distribution.

Understanding Today’s Supply Chain Disruptions

The global supply chain has faced unprecedented strain in recent years. Panelists discussed how a combination of factors — including labor shortages, increased fuel costs, severe winter weather, and the lasting impacts of COVID — have created widespread delays and uncertainty across nearly every industry.

These disruptions have collectively become known as “The Everything Shortage,” a term used to describe ongoing product scarcity, rising costs, and unpredictable lead times. Businesses across the country have been forced to rethink how they source, transport, and deliver goods.

From Offshoring to Onshoring: A Shift in Strategy

One key theme of the discussion was the growing shift from offshoring to onshoring and nearshoring. As global supply chains become more complex and vulnerable, companies are increasingly turning to domestic and regional partners to improve reliability, visibility, and speed.

This shift has also driven innovation, with businesses exploring alternative sourcing strategies, flexible transportation models, and more resilient logistics networks to better withstand future disruptions.

What’s Next for Transportation & Logistics?

Panelists shared insights into both the short-term and long-term outlook for the shipping and delivery market. Topics included capacity fluctuations, evolving customer expectations, technology adoption, and the increasing importance of adaptable transportation partners.

Audience participation played a major role in the conversation, with thoughtful questions highlighting the real-world challenges businesses continue to face — and the need for proactive, solution-driven logistics providers.
