Digital sales are rising, but businesses still struggle to meet profitability, rising logistics costs, and higher return rate ratios. The issue stems from the orthodox way of planning and selling, i.e., economies of scale.

A consolidated view into product sales volume, product inventory, product customer reviews, and logistics costs offers insights into the total cost to profit and alleviates supply chain burden from unwanted inventory, crowded shelves, reverse logistics, and handling costs.
Traditional silo approaches in planning and forecasting are failing big time today.

They are failing with on-prem and even with the latest cloud services since ERPs and SCM systems are not able to get a consolidated view of supplier availability, in-transit availability, on-hand inventory, orders allocated, returns, anticipated sales, hot and obsolete inventory levels, costs, pricing, logistic bottlenecks, market conditions, and customer buying patterns in real time.
It is time to implement an Outside-In approach here.
Supply chain strategy teams are looking for business-driven models to plan and forecast by connecting every business signal in their ecosystem and their partners’ ecosystems.
In the recent digital era, shoppers leave enough data points to predict future sales, and retailers want to analyze that data and deliver customers what they want. Customer communities and brand forums capture customer preferences and new trends, and the same can be leveraged in the planning process with the power of a platform that converges data across the ecosystem to predict business moves.

More than half of the G2000 manufacturing companies say they will rely on AI for their supply chain management initiatives before 2024 – Inbound Logistics
Leveraging Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence to predict customer buying patterns to further streamline manufacturing, procurement, and inventory allocation is one of the critical goals of digital acceleration. If deployed correctly, AI could amplify efficiencies throughout businesses’ digital channels.
