WEBINAR: How AI-Powered Purchasing Will Save You Millions Without a Data Cleanse

Let’s face it, MRO inventory is usually overbought and underinsured, costing millions. But organizations rarely do anything about it because they’re convinced their data just isn’t in a good enough place to make MRO optimization a priority. But perfect data doesn’t exist, it never will, no matter how many data cleanses you waste money on.

Explore how AI is creating a new approach to MRO/indirect materials optimization and bridging the gap between procurement and operations teams, while breaking the stigma of having to have perfect data to get started. Learn how leading manufacturers have adopted an AI approach and have learned the secret that’s been hiding in plain sight.

We’ll discuss topics such as:

-Eliminating the need for lengthy and costly data cleanse projects

-Increasing visibility of spend and price variances to reduce tail spend

-Building confidence in your MRO inventory availability to ensure you will have the right part at the right time at the right place, at the right cost

-Identifying millions in savings opportunities through inventory deduplication, revamped stocking policies, and network-sharing opportunities

Can AI be the Unexpected Ally for Demand Planners?

Today’s ecosystem is fraught with volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (vuca) brought on by 2+ years of COVID, the war in Ukraine and multiple socio-political factors. Demand Planners carry the huge responsibility to navigate their organization through these difficult times but are left with traditional tools, starting from the assumption that the past will repeat itself. However, research conducted over the past two years indicate that demand forecasting investments made in AI-based platforms can return up to 6 times greater benefits over investments made in traditional planning systems.   This raises a few questions: Should planners autonomously embrace these new technologies to guide their organization through change? What changes can AI bring to an organization’s planning environment? How will it impact demand planning roles, and will humans be able to stay in control?   In this webinar, experts from Garvis will discuss this topic together with Robert Byrne, the inventor of “Demand Sensing”. They will bring more clarity to these questions and talk about the potential behind a new generation of AI planning solutions.
