An Interactive 5-Day Training Course
Big Data Analytics for Supply Chain Optimization
Prepare for Supply Chain 4.0 as a Part of Industry 4.0
Course Overview
As the Industry 4.0 appears the lifeblood of it will continue to be the supply chain and logistics, the clogs and interruptions in the flow can choke the life out of it and can reduce the benefits from the industries' improvement. Therefore, the Supply Chain and Logistics 4.0 is needed to carry all the goods and information that the industry is creating and enable the final product to reach the customers.
For example, even if we consider the 3D printing technology as a new way of manufacturing, entities and companies will still need to transport the same 3D printers to the place where they will perform the printing.
As the availability of the data grows there is an opportunity to move away from the previously used techniques of forecasting and transfer into the realm of Big Data and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Data analysis, planning and real time reaction to the changes in supply chain become the “must haves”. With the use of the tools available for the Big Data analysis and dynamic simulation we are now able to have a glimpse into the future and make a decision based on the dynamic simulation of agent and process behavior.
This Big Data Analytics for Supply Chain Optimization training course is there to help institutions, companies and individuals transform their existing supply chain to a Supply Chain 4.0 and be competitive within the fourth industry revolution.
This GLOMACS training course on Big Data Analytics for Supply Chain Optimization will highlight:
- What are the Big Data sources in supply chain and logistics?
- Methods for Big Data analysis and its use for forecasting
- Using a Big Data analysis results for a dynamic simulation basis
- Focus on both increasing of market share and profit as well as cost reduction
- Improving the decision making in real time, by forecasting the events based on complex behavior
