Interconnected AI in Supply Chain Management

At TrueGradient, we often refer to interconnected AI. But what does it truly mean for a business?

In essence, interconnected AI means having a single planning, forecasting & optimisation system for all aspects of supply chain.

Lets delve deeper into this-

Think about the key sections of supply chain planning and optimisation — those vital gears that keep everything moving:

• Demand Forecasting
• Inventory Optimisation
• Pricing Optimisation
• Assortment Planning (planogram for retailers)

Most of the retailers have separate teams handling these aspects and more often than not, these teams work in silos. Due to this, there are gaps in planning.

Poor planning often leads to over stocking or stock-outs. This is driven by either seasonal forecast not aligning with current stock, inaccurate reorder point calculations or not planning inventory for upcoming promotional period.

What if there was a way to seamlessly connect all these moving parts? By adopting interconnected AI, the aim is to bridge these planning gaps and create a cohesive environment where planning, forecasting, and optimisation operate in synergy.

The infographic above illustrates the interconnected nature of supply chain planning, demonstrating how each distinct aspect influences others. It emphasises on the concept of interconnectedness. For instance, planning inventory or creating a planogram is not a standalone task; rather, it is highly driven by demand patterns and promotional strategies.
