At Ligentia, we’re fortunate to partner with a vast array of companies across the entire supply chain spectrum. From nimble e-commerce start-ups to established retail and manufacturing giants, our customers all face the same core challenge: taming the ever-increasing complexity of modern global supply chains. While their specific tools and processes may differ, the need for unparalleled visibility and accurate forecasting remains a constant thread.
This is where the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) comes into play. We, at Ligentia, view AI as a powerful tool with the potential to revolutionise the way businesses navigate the intricacies of supply chains.
As CTO, I’ve witnessed firsthand the wide range of challenges and opportunities our customers face. This exposure to such a diverse customer base fuels our ongoing exploration of emerging technologies like AI.
But with a vast array of options, which ones hold the most promise? For me, while predicting disruptions with absolute certainty remains a challenge, AI offers a powerful tool for managing them. Imagine a world where real-time visibility across the entire supply chain allows us to identify potential issues early on. By constantly analysing vast amounts of data, AI can pick up on subtle patterns and signals that might indicate an impending disruption, giving us time to react and minimise its impact.This is the future that AI promises.
