Design principles

• Establish clear, measurable, and regularly reviewed key performance indicators (KPIs) across the entire supply chain to drive data-informed decisions and foster continuous improvement.

• Empower supply chain teams with the necessary data, tools, and authority to make real-time, autonomous decisions that optimize operations and respond rapidly to dynamic conditions.

• Prioritize and integrate artificial intelligence (AI) strategically within the supply chain, facilitating clear understanding of roles, responsibilities, and organizational structures to maximize AI-driven outcomes.

• Implement robust processes for assessing and managing the operational readiness of new partners and for the comprehensive management and resolution of operational issues, including the validation of corrective actions.

• Design and operate the supply chain application with inherent mechanisms to meet all relevant compliance and regulatory requirements.

• Foster a culture and implement mechanisms for continuous evolution and adaptation of supply chain operations to use emerging technologies, best practices, and market dynamics.
