    AI-Powered Forecasting & Planning

    Predicting the future is an impossible task. Even a 10-day weather forecast is only right about half the time. Then how can you plan for next month, next quarter or next year? Traditional supply chain forecasting largely predicts the future based on patterns in historical data. While this can work with cyclical products or operations, in most cases it’s often only part of the data. There’s still a chance the forecast will be close to accurate, but there’s room for improvement.Artificial intelligence (AI) is improving forecast accuracy by identifying more complex relationships in historical data, incorporating more data sources and continuously learning from new information. Join this microlearning to explore how AI is being used to enhance forecasting processes across supply chains. You’ll compare traditional and AI-driven forecasting approaches, examine the steps involved in developing and using AI forecasts, and discover how planners work alongside AI to improve decision-making. Developed in collaboration with ASCM member Janetta Barker, CSCP, CPIM.

    How Hyper-Personalization is Transforming Supply Chains

    Because of the advancements of artificial intelligence (AI), analytics and big data, companies now have the ability to offer hyper-personalization, delivering experiences as unique as their customers. Whether it’s by sending replenishment reminders based on actual usage patterns, offering recommendations based on proven customer preferences or ensuring an item is in stock exactly when the customer needs it, B2Me supply chains are targeting hyper-specific customer needs. Offering hyper-personalization at scale while delivering service consistently and within a reasonable timeframe requires a more complex supply chain than ever before. Organizations need to incorporate thousands of demand points into their supply chain planning. At the same time, organizations must balance consumer privacy when managing unique customer profiles. Efficiency is critical for managing this operational complexity, but there still needs to be flexibility for customization. In this microlearning, you’ll discover how to design this complicated supply chain that delivers effective, context-aware experiences for customers. The course also covers enabling tools, key risks and responsible hyper-personalization practices. Created in collaboration with ASCM member Renee Williams, MBA, PMP, PROSCI, CLSSGB.

    Three Big Disastrous Assumptions Behind Every MRP Schedule

    Material Requirements Planning (MRP) has been the backbone of supply chain planning for decades—but in today’s volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) environment, its foundational assumptions are increasingly at odds with reality.In this thought-provoking session, industry experts Carol Ptak and Chad Smith unpack the three core assumptions behind every MRP schedule—and why they no longer hold true. From the false certainty of demand forecasts to the illusion of stable lead times and perfect execution, these assumptions create the conditions for chronic shortages, excess inventory, and costly expediting.Using real-world examples and practical insights, the speakers will explore how these flawed assumptions amplify variability, distort signals across the supply chain, and fuel the bullwhip effect. More importantly, they’ll introduce a modern, demand-driven approach to planning—focused on flow, decoupling, and resilience—to help organizations better navigate disruption and improve performance.Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of why traditional planning methods fall short—and what to do instead to build more adaptive, responsive, and resilient supply chains.

    From Chains to Systems: Managing Supply Chains as Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS)

    In an era of unprecedented global disruption, the traditional understanding of a supply chain as a linear chain, is no longer sufficient to ensure long-term viability. This session, presented by Kimberly Tholl, CSCP, PMP, challenges practitioners to shift their mindset from managing chains to navigating Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS). As both a seasoned industry leader and a doctoral researcher, Kimberly bridges the gap between theoretical systems thinking and practical supply chain operations. Attendees will explore the core characteristics of a CAS, including emergence, adaptation, feedback loops, and non-linearity, where small, localized changes can trigger massive, delayed effects across an entire network. Through real-world examples, ranging from pandemic-era pivots in the textile industry to the systemic impacts of labor subcontracting, the webinar illustrates how individual firm actions shape the broader networks that sustain them. Key Takeaways for Practitioners:1. Map Your Supply Network: Move beyond Tier 1 visibility to identify critical nodes and interdependencies across suppliers, logistics providers, and regulators.2. Bridge, Don't Just Buffer: Transition from purely protective strategies (safety stock) to collaborative "bridging" through information sharing among industry players.3. Identify Network "Tipping Points": Learn to recognize when a critical mass of industry change
