$2.5B in 72 Hours: What Agentic AI Looks Like When It Actually Works

95% of enterprise agentic AI pilots never deliver ROI (MIT, 2025). The gap isn’t ambition — it’s the jump from a model that works in a sandbox to an agent trusted to act on the plant floor, inside the systems your team already runs on. This session, with host Scott Luton and featured guests Vika Smilansky and Marc Amarillas with DataRobot, breaks down what that jump actually takes, and what it looks like solved, with agents orchestrated across the value chain, not in isolated silos: – Supply chain: multi-tier supplier risk and tariff exposure caught before a single-source failure becomes a line-down event – Plant operations: bottlenecks and downtime caught before they hit the shift report – Aftermarket: warranty leakage and reactive dispatch turned back into retained margin We’ll ground our conversation in real use cases, including a tariff signal that put $2.5B in revenue at risk, resolved in 72 hours instead of weeks, with a human signing off at every step. Not a pilot. Not a dashboard. A production-grade agent workforce — connecting planning, operations, and service to move manufacturers from reactive to proactive.

Beyond Resilience: Capitalizing on Supply Chain Uncertainty

The only thing certain in life is that nothing is certain.” So said Roman philosopher Pliny the Elder nearly 2,000 years ago. For supply chain professionals this quote definitely rings true today. Unpredictable shifts in demand and disruptions to supply are becoming more frequent and more severe. Over the last few years, much of our focus has been on building resilient supply chains to prepare for the inevitable, unforeseen challenges ahead. However, some industry leaders are striving to go beyond resiliency to actually take advantage of future disruptions. They see the upside of supply chain uncertainty as an opportunity to capture share from slower competitors. In this Supply Chain Now webinar, hosts Scott Luton and Kim Reuter welcome special guests John DeSarbo and Bharathi Shankar from ZS to explore how industry leaders are capitalizing on uncertainty by building agility into their operations, rethinking traditional approaches to supply chain management, and utilizing AI and advanced analytics to uncover opportunities to capitalize on changing market dynamics.
