By implementing C360 AI in supply chain and logistics, supply chain managers can enhance their decision making by predicting building-up bottlenecks, unforeseen abnormalities, and solutions in order to streamline production scheduling that otherwise tends to be highly variable due to dependencies on manufacturing operations management.
C360 AI-lead supply chain optimization software amplifies important decisions by using cognitive predictions and recommendations on optimal actions. This can help enhance overall supply chain performance.
With the complex network of supply chains that exist today, it is critical for manufacturers to get complete visibility of the entire supply value chain, with minimal effort.
Several companies today lack key actionable insights to drive timely decisions that meet expectations with speed and agility
C360 AI & ML principles create highly accurate predictions of future demand based. For example, forecasting the decline and end-of-life of a product accurately on a sales channel.
Machine Learning serves as a robust analytical tool to help supply chain companies process large sets of data.
Last-mile delivery is a critical aspect of the entire supply chain as its efficacy can have a direct impact on multiple verticals, including customer experience and product quality
Machine learning algorithms are capable of both enhancing the product quality and reducing the risk of fraud by automating inspections and auditing processes followed by performing real-time analysis of results to detect anomalies or deviation from normal patterns
The risks of child labour, corruption and water scarcity are higher in certain countries. Google considers these factors during supplier assessment. Google also takes steps to prevent these problems in its supply chain.
There are also some problems related to specific products including their chemical composition and the kind of labour required to manufacture these products. Google assesses the suppliers’ processes to know if their manufacturing processes are chemically intensive.
Google’s supplier engagement efforts are also a part of its assessment process. The company checks if the supplier has previously been audited by the company.
The strategic importance of the supplier is also an important factor that Google supplier managers consider while assessing the risks of working with a specific supply chain partner.
