How To Create A Resilient & AI-Ready IT Portfolio For Supply Chain

In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, technology takes centre stage. Whether it’s streamlining processes, enhancing decision-making, driving revenue and profit or enabling new products, services and channels to market, software applications form the bedrock of most organizations. From predictive AI to generative AI and deep learning, the quest to harness the power of the cloud knows no bounds. But amidst this digital revolution, are we optimizing our approach to selecting software vendors or are we stuck in the 1990’s: the era of perpetual licenses, on-premise installations and flat file integration? Join Martijn Lofvers, CEO & Chief Trendwatcher at Supply Chain Media and guest speaker Alan Duncan, CEO & Founder at Criona as we will delve into how companies evaluate and choose enterprise applications today; why that often fails to differentiate the vendors and the unique value they might deliver. We will discuss how that needs to change to a smarter way that develops a partnership with the vendor, ensures value is delivered and business outcomes are achieved, at an acceptable level of risk.
