Key uses of Artificial Intelligence in Supply Chain & Retail
Demand Forecasting
Soothsayer can help you leverage A.I. to drive more accurate demand forecasting and provide deep insight into the types & characteristics of products that are most popular with your customers. This will help you decrease the impact of holding too much inventory, reduce the number of discounted items, improve your customer loyalty & understanding, and ensure the right inventory is on the right shelves at the right time.
Inventory Optimization
Soothsayer can work with you to model the current topology of your network of stores, manufacturing sites, warehouses, and DCs. We can utilize advanced A.I. techniques to mathematically model your supply chain to optimize for minimum inventory at each location, while ensuring that you still satisfy SLAs.
Scientific Segmentation
Artificial Intelligence-driven Segmentation (aka Clustering) allows you to form a much deeper understanding of your customers, products, and processes. Traditional approaches predefine what these groups look like and fit your data to that. With A.I. methods, Soothsayer can ‘regroup’ your data in a much more accurate way – so what you thought was complex, non-linear, and inseparable becomes nice, clean, and highly defined.
