🚨 Tesla halts production due to Houthi militias in the Suez Canal. Hurricane Milton disrupts global supply chains. And Germany wonders if there’s enough paper for new elections. What do these headlines have in common? Short-term changes in demand or supply chain structures can disrupt even the best-laid plans. To avoid penalties, companies often increase safety stocks, which can trigger the Bullwhip Effect and lead to unnecessary waste of resources. The key? Reliable and dynamic forecasting – and, even more importantly, high forecast accuracy. Only with precise predictions can companies respond flexibly to market changes, reduce inventory costs, and plan more sustainably. Why this is so crucial and how accurate forecasting makes all the difference is covered in our new blog post: https://lnkd.in/e9RRgeKn #SupplyChain #ForecastAccuracy #Sustainability #Innovation #Forecasting

Facing the Data Deluge in #Sustainability: How #AI Is Leading the Way 🦾💡   As companies ramp up their sustainability efforts, driven by regulations like the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), the amount of data they must manage, on everything from CO2 emissions to supply chain transparency, is exploding. These datasets are not only vast but also unstructured, heterogeneous, and difficult to analyze. 📊   But here’s the good news: Artificial Intelligence is transforming the way we process and analyze these massive and complex datasets, helping businesses turn information overload into actionable insights. 🔍 In our latest blog post, we explore how AI can…   ✅… automate data processing to handle vast amounts of sustainability data in real-time. ✅… enhance data quality by harmonizing and cleaning data from multiple sources. ✅… predict trends to help companies proactively manage their sustainability strategies. ✅… optimize supply chain decisions by assessing supplier sustainability and minimizing risks.   Curious about how AI can support your sustainability goals?

A Month of Incredible Connections and Insights! 🚀 In October, pacemaker.ai had the opportunity to join important conversations on today’s supply chain challenges. As supply chains grow more complex, with global dependencies, demand shifts, and sustainability pressures, our mission to revolutionize optimization through AI feels more essential than ever. Last month, this mission led us to six major industry events: the Logistics Summit, Automotive Supplier Summit @IZB2024, Internationale Zuliefererbörse (IZB), Celosphere by Celonis, BVL Supply Chain CX, and the IMPACT FESTIVAL. Each event offered a unique platform to showcase our solutions, but more importantly, they were opportunities to connect directly with leaders facing real issues when testing traditional approaches. These issues include: • rising costs • fragmented data • sustainability goals • global unpredictability Our AI solutions respond to these challenges by creating adaptable, data-driven systems that can forecast, adjust, and respond in real time. What we saw was clear: the demand for smarter, resilient supply chains is growing. Each conversation underscored the urgency of innovation. Shaping the future starts with the right exchange. Let’s talk about your challenges and explore what’s possible. A chat is the first step: ➡️ https://lnkd.in/edtrKGnY 💬 Thank you to everyone who stopped by to connect with us. Together, we're shaping the future of supply chain intelligence. 🌐 Lukas Dreiling Julia Volz Christian Jabs Lisa Levasier Gerrit Baumgardt Arne Christoph Jan Saurenhaus Robert Kokott Andreas Hoeppener #supplychain #demandshifts #sustainabilitygoals
