Big Data Analytics for Supply Chain Optimization

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”.
