How Artificial Intelligence Improves the Supply Chain

Typically, AI uses human reasoning as a model for decision making, with a goal of providing better insights, products, services or efficiencies. There are several subfields of AI including machine learning, natural language processing, planning, problem solving and robotics.

Artificial intelligence has several applications in the supply chain, including extracting information, data analysis, supply and demand planning, autonomous vehicles and warehouse management.

How Machine Learning Optimizes the Supply Chain

Machine learning typically uses observations or data to train a computer model. Patterns in the data, combined with predicted and actual outcomes are analyzed through machine learning and used to improve how the technology functions. This cycle repeats, further refining the technology as it’s exposed to more information.

Machine learning has several applications in the supply chain, including data analysis, supply chain optimization, cost reduction, planning and forecasting.

An Introduction to Predictive and Prescriptive Analytics for Supply Chain Optimization

For supply chain management, descriptive analytics is a useful way to look at the past and optimize supply chain operations. However, it’s the relatively new fields of predictive and prescriptive analytics that can unlock real value in the supply chain.

These types of analytics help analyze, model, predict and prepare for future changes in the supply chain. Those insights become part of continual improvement initiatives that reduce waste, streamline processes and minimize costs. Predictive and prescriptive analytics are an important part of artificial intelligence and machine learning implementation in the supply chain.
