Artificial Intelligence in Demand Planning
Procurement and Supply Chain|3 days|Classroom or live online
This programme examines how the practice is shifting, and what delegates should adopt, adapt or ignore. It works through inventory optimisation and ethical sourcing as they stand today and where they are heading. The shift is worth understanding because supply disruption has become a standing operational risk rather than an exception. Delegates leave able to work confidently with supplier development, category management and demand planning in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Improve supplier development within their own organisation, measured against ISO 20400 on sustainable procurement
- Bring category management into line with current good practice
- Spot where demand planning is failing before it becomes a finding
- Review logistics management and say plainly whether it is working
