CPGs, start your New Year by learning how demand sensing improves your supply chain. Forecasts built using demand sensing solutions achieve better accuracy and adjustment times than ones created using traditional forecasting processes.    Michael Gylling, VP Product, Consumer Goods & Production at RELEX, introduces demand sensing in the blog “Demand sensing: How to conquer CPG supply chain chaos,” from concept to implementation and real results achieved by one of our customers.    📖 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/dUbHPFSb    #SupplyChainManagement #DemandSensing #CPG 

Configure, don’t code. ⚙️ That is at the heart of RELEX product development: develop a solution that is easy to adapt to any situation with ease.   In this blog, our Vice President of Product Strategy and Marketing, Laurence Brenig-Jones, discusses configurability. It needs to be built into the planning solution which requires a business rules engine, an interface that allows users to control business logic without complex programming. No business rules engine rules without “super users,” the people in the organization well versed in its secrets.

Diversification is central to investment, and that’s the case with AI, too. AI diversification involves investing in different types of AI that perform distinct functions while operating collaboratively for optimal efficiency and profitability. It’s making sure you use the right tool for the right task, and it’s the best way to safeguard your investment in technology. Read our “AI at RELEX” guide by Laurence Brenig-Jones, Vice President of Product Strategy and Marketing at RELEX, to understand how we deploy different types of AI and how they all contribute to achieving our customers’ business objectives.
