It is difficult to predict the final result of the second revolution, but companies are already adopting a range of new supply chain structures and competitive strategies. It is naive to think that one size will fit all or that any firm will restrict itself to a single structure for all of its transactions. Above all, new supply chains must provide diversity and flexibility. The structure of industry, however, will not remain static. As with the first supply chain revolution, the impact on corporate organization and industry structure will be felt far beyond the present advances in supply chain management.

The main idea of the paragraph

It is hard to predict the final result of the IT revolution. As with the first supply chain revolution, the impact on corporate organization and industry structure will go beyond the present advances in supply chain management.

很难预测信息技术革命的最终结果。就像第一次供应链革命一样，信息技术对公司的组织结构以及产业结构的影响将远远超出对现今供应链管理方面的改进。
