Global ICT supply chains are facing an inflexion point. According to a July 2025 PwC report, telecom and technology firms are accelerating efforts to de-risk their logistics strategies in response to geopolitical tensions, shifting tariff regimes, and tightening export controls.
The result? A transformation of how and where telecom, datacentre, and cloud hardware moves across borders, and an urgent need for smarter, more compliant logistics support.
Resilience Over Efficiency
In place of just-in-time models and linear trade routes, ICT players are prioritising:
- Friend-shoring and nearshoring to trusted regions
- Dual sourcing and inventory staging for hardware components
- Regional warehousing closer to key deployment sites
- Customs compliance and licensing as strategic enablers
These trends mark a shift from lowest-cost delivery to supply chain resilience and visibility.
