Presented by: Jim Hayden, Chief Data Scientist, Resilience360
2020 has been a year of back-to-back, jaw-dropping disruptions that often delayed, altered, or halted production and transportation altogether.
Artificial Intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT) and Cloud Computing are enabling companies to generate ‘digital twins’ of their supply chains, by creating data that allows supply chain risk to be predicted in ways that were not previously possible. This offers an opportunity for risk data to be used to enhance core supply chain planning and execution processes and create billions of dollars in operational efficiency.
This presentation will provide an overview of how predictive analytics and risk-adjusted data can be used to visualize, monitor, analyze and mitigate risk in the supply chain so companies can make more informed decisions quickly for the future of their supply chain.
