AI-Based Supply Signal Analyses Help Improve Supply Assurance Amid Uncertainty
E2open Supply Sensing uses real-time signals, artificial intelligence (AI), and market volatilities to predict supply shortages, so you can deliver better service and lower inventory costs.
Easily predict supply chain shortages and act decisively
Uncertainty is the new norm
Factory closures, labor shortages, and container delays have become all too frequent today. It seems like constant change is the only constant. That makes predicting supply shortages more difficult than ever, putting organizations in a constant reactive state and leaving many of their customers unsatisfied.
Predict, react, and adapt when supply shortages hit
Use real-time data, artificial intelligence, and lead time variances to predict supply shortages and deliver better service.
Understand the risk of shortages
Real-time data and predictive analytics provide visibility into potential inventory shortfalls during specific periods.
Triage shortages for optimal outcomes
Prescriptive analytics give you options such as selecting alternate suppliers, adding manufacturing runs and changing production volumes.
Safeguard service levels
The ability to monitor the current service risk at any level of aggregation based on the state of demand and supply helps you keep customers happy.
Balance inventory and service risk
You can review tradeoffs for the current service risk versus the cost of inventory at any stage to help maximize profits—even during a holiday season.
Resolve the most pressing risks
By identifying and responding to only the most critical near-term service risks, you save time, maintain customer loyalty, and minimize the cost of expedites.
Mitigate risk from end to end
Assuring supply helps you mitigate risk, including internal operations, upstream contract manufacturers, and downstream distribution partners.

Once you can see the shipments moving in transit, you can predict any late shipments and adjust. NCR will see a seven-figure benefit from the implementation; it has added definite value for us.
Having visibility to the supply chain gives us and our suppliers the opportunity to plan. We talk about planning its capacity, its resources, its material—and it helps with the cost as well by having all those elements tied together.
With the e2open system, processes that used to take a whole calendar year now happen in a matter of days.
We know what stock we have in the channel, is it healthy, what our average days of stock are, do we ship in more or do we reduce what we are shipping? We are really in control of channel data.
By implementing an integrated international purchasing system, we have ensured that Leggett & Platt is maximizing its efforts to conduct its international procurement activities in a compliant manner.
e2open compliance capabilities are very important for the Geodis Supply Chain Optimization compliance risk management program. The digital information is key to providing timely and accurate visibility, streamlining our compliance check processes, improving their efficiency and reliability.
