In recent years, supply chains have faced numerous disruptions, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and natural disasters, resulting in substantial financial losses. The imperative to build resilient and more interconnected supply chain networks has grown significantly. Artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and data analytics have emerged as innovative tools with the potential to reshape supply chains.

AI-based solutions offer the capacity to enhance the overall supply chain process by anticipating potential issues and proactively suggesting solutions to manage disruptions. They can also streamline operations by intelligently automating processes and providing visibility and insights that empower effective decision-making and planning.

There are several ways in which AI and ML can be applied throughout the supply chain to bring about transformative change. Some of the key areas where these technologies can make a substantial impact include:

  1. Supply Chain Automation and Digitization: Many supply chain activities rely on document-based transactions, such as Bills of Lading (BOL), Proof of Delivery (POD), and contracts. AI can digitize these documents, reducing human errors and improving the overall customer experience. Additionally, AI can automate repetitive and manual tasks in various aspects of the supply chain, increasing efficiency.
  2. Real-Time Visibility and Predictive Analytics: Businesses can harness the wealth of data generated within the supply chain to make informed strategic and tactical decisions. Real-time data access allows for swift responses to evolving situations, while AI and ML can analyze historical data to optimize forecasting, planning, prediction, and process automation. For example, AI-based solutions can predict service failures in advance and mitigate risks.
  3. Supply Chain Connectivity: The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the importance of visibility and connectivity across all nodes in the supply chain to manage uncertainty and unpredictability. Supply chain digitalization, coupled with AI and blockchain technology, can strengthen end-to-end integrations, connecting various supply chain activities like planning, booking, shipment tracking, invoicing, and payments among multiple vendors, customers, and partners.
  4. Sustainability: AI and data analytics contribute to making supply chain operations more environmentally friendly. Machine learning and data analytics can optimize vehicle routes, minimizing miles driven and reducing fuel consumption. AI aids in reducing waste in the supply chain by providing more accurate demand, inventory, and sales forecasts.
  5. Last-Mile Logistics: With the growing prominence of e-commerce and evolving consumer behaviors, last-mile logistics have become critical for efficient supply chain operations. AI and ML can help optimize costs, service quality, and asset utilization, addressing challenges within last-mile supply chain logistics.

Outlook: The global logistics industry is poised to exceed $15 trillion by 2023, with an annual growth rate of approximately 5%. In the United States, the logistics industry is projected to surpass $2 trillion by 2023, constituting 8-9% of the total GDP. Businesses that leverage AI and ML are well-positioned to enhance supply chain efficiency and adapt to evolving consumer preferences and external factors with greater agility.
