FOREWORD AI IS RESHAPING SUPPLY CHAIN

TECH IS ENABLING ORGANISATIONS TO EVOLVE FASTER THAN EVER , AND OFTEN IT ’ S KNOWING WHERE TO START THAT THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE

“ AI is about unlocking a company ’ s human ingenuity ”

DR ADNAN MASOOD , CHIEF AI OFFICER
& LEAD ARCHITECT , UST GLOBAL
AI is taking over the world , or so some press reports would have us believe . It ’ s certainly playing an increasingly important role in supply chain , allowing companies to optimise and streamline in many ways .
Organisations are evolving faster than ever , and they need to focus on high-impact priorities , which can be tough , when you ’ re drawing in data , internal processes , and endless administrative tasks .
The number of products claiming to meet this challenge is bewildering , yet a one-size-fits-all fails to cater to the uniqueness of every business . It ’ s complicated .
But one thing we pride ourselves on here at Supply Chain Digital is drawing clarity from complication . To that end , in this issue we turn to AI guru Dr Adnan Masood , an engineer , researcher , and thought leader with UST .
Masood explains how AI is all about “ creating a repeatable approach to processes throughout an organisation ”, and “ unlocking a company ’ s human ingenuity ”.
Read on for more insight on this and on myriad other aspects of running efficient and clean supply chains .
