The Whiteark Guide to Supply Chain Optimisation
The coronavirus pandemic highlighted the need for companies to focus on transforming their traditional supply chain models to digital supply networks, in order to better manage supply chain risk and disruption.
With the growing emergence of new supply chain technologies, organisations can invest in enablers that will support their supply chain network in resisting unexpected disruption. These technologies significantly improve visibility across the supply chain and are designed to anticipate and meet future challenges.
Some of these enablers include:
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Intelligent, self-correcting AI will make inventory monitoring more accurate and reduce material waste.
Blockchain
Will verify authenticity, improve traceability and visibility, and improve transactional trust.
Quantum Computing
Unprecedented computational power will solve previously unsolvable problems.
Internet of Things (IoT)
Data from IoT sensors will provide insight into inventory location and status.
Intelligent Order Management
Supply chains will master inventory visibility with improved demand forecasting and automation.
Digital Twins
Virtual representations of complex creations — let you track objects through entire lifecycles.
Digital supply networks, breakdown functional silos and allow companies to become connected to their complete supply network to empower end to end visibility, collaboration, agility, and optimisation. Organisations that deploy Digital supply networks will be equipped to deal with unexpected events.
Supply chain optimisation.
Supply chain optimisation makes the best use of technology and resources such as blockchain, AI and IoT to improve efficiency, responsiveness and performance in a supply network so that companies can provide customers with what they want, when and where they want it – in a way that positively contributes to the organisation’s profitability and sustainability. An organisation’s supply chain is a critical business process that is crucial for a successful customer experience.
