Executive Blindspots in B2B Supply Chains
In import/export trading houses, manufacturing plants, and wholesale distribution networks, legacy ERP systems act merely as historical ledgers. They report inventory reality only after high-velocity SKUs have stocked out or millions in working capital have been immobilized in slow-moving stock.
According to research by McKinsey & Company, AI-driven supply chain forecasting reduces forecasting errors by up to 50% and cuts warehousing overhead by up to 30%.
