Retail and supply chain planning AI business challenges
Data security, privacy, and integrity are crucial for making informed business decisions, emphasizing the need for accurate, consistent, and reliable data.
One size doesn’t fit all
A one-size fits all AI approach doesn’t work in a highly competitive market. Leaders are torn between investing in the potentially wrong technology and being left behind.
Inability to scale and adapt
Planning silos, poor visibility, and rigid tech stacks can’t easily adapt to market volatility and disruptions, or scale with business needs and growth.
Poor-quality data insights
Insight-poor data services and processes have plenty of data, but no way to extract the best value and insights from it.
Delayed reactions to supply
Slow, inaccurate responses to the daily flood of supply chain shifts necessitate tech investment.
