Radical changes are being made across supplier bases as companies move to a more regionalized supplier base with less reliance on offshore production. Global transportation delays continue to create shipping issues and spikes in demand continue to further stress corporate supply chains. It’s more important than ever for organizations to maximize effective planning strategies and build out their supply chain planning capability. But how do you involve Finance in your supply chain planning? What other departments should be involved in creating supply chain plans? And what tools are most effective for rapidly building a more robust and collaborative planning process across your organization? Join Michael Conley with CCH Tagetik at Wolters Kluwer and Supply Chain Now hosts Scott Luton and Greg White to learn more!

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.
