The future of demand forecasting lies in the powerful duo of humans and AI. This framework leverages their unique strengths: humans provide contextual understanding for long-life cycles or limited data, while AI crunches vast datasets for fast-moving trends. From short-cycle fashion to stable batteries, the approach adapts based on product lifecycles and volatility. The magic happens in the mix, leading to more accurate, responsive, and adaptable forecasts. So, ditch the outdated methods and embrace human-AI collaboration . #demandforecasting #supplychainmanagement #SmarterInventory https://lnkd.in/eceFeFkg

"The Research. The framework is based on an extensive analysis of human-AI collaboration in forecasting at several companies from a variety of industries, through empirical research conducted by the authors at the MIT Digital Supply Chain Transformation lab and WHU — Otto Beisheim School of Management. "The research team collaborated with companies to understand the challenges in their forecasting efforts and to investigate the specific roles of human and AI agents in the area, particularly the synergies of teaming them up. "Research methodologies include experimental design analysis that quantifies the effect of human intervention in AI/machine learning demand forecasting and the development of AI/machine learning models that evaluate the value of expert judgment in the presence of other external features, such as clickstream data."

How do you think the value of data can be unlocked? In recent years, generative AI has become increasingly important since it can glean insights from existing data at a massive scale. Applications of AI in the retail industry include predicting quantities and styles to buy based on sell-through data, optimizing inventory allocation for store replenishment, recommending new brand partners that would complement the current assortment and surfacing products that fit a store profile and would resonate with the consumer. As we enter this next generation of what data can do for businesses, it’s a good time to take a step back and discuss why and how data can improve your business, how to analyze it and how to make it work to its highest potential.

Look out for my upcoming article on proposed MORAM AI Model for supply chain management! Cheers! General Mills Expanding Generative AI in Procurement Amid Shift to Always-On Supply Chain General Mills' use of artificial intelligence is helping evolve its supply chain organization from a design-to-value model to an “always-on" model that works more dynamically than episodically. The company is using enhanced datasets within procurement to develop models that identify the cost gap in ingredients and packaging materials, Paul Gallagher General Mills chief supply chain officer, shared in a recent Gartner podcast. Analytics using generative AI algorithms have recorded more than 30% waste reduction in areas where the data has been implemented, prompting the company to expand the program. #AI #SupplyChain #ArtificialIntelligence #Generative #AlwaysOn https://lnkd.in/gpU756s6
