Current Situation
Supply side management is often done locally or regionally. Major disruptions have exposed this as insufficient and lacking in global flexibility and failing to balance total cost with total risk.
Goals and Objectives
This is the ability to assess global supply as an integrated, real-time set of levers companies can use to optimize supply chain cost, availability, and service performance.
Technology Deployed
Hardware: Mobile and IoT
Software: Cloud and artificial intelligence
Services: IT services
Use Case Summary
There is an ability to dynamically flex sourcing, production, and fulfillment across the global supply chain in real or near real time to minimize the scale and duration of disruptions.
