Key Takeaways: Supply Chain: Cash or Trash

Seth Page is the COO of ThroughPut.ai, an artificial intelligence (AI) supply chain pioneer that enables companies to detect, prioritize and alleviate dynamic operational bottlenecks in real-time.
In the podcast interview, Joe and Seth discuss the enormous waste in supply chains. While supply chains create all the wonderful goods and services we enjoy, they also produce a lot of waste.
Approximately one-third of supply chain output is waste – it adds no value for anyone. The waste is horrible for bottom lines and the environment.
According to Boston Consulting Group’s recent report, 80% of greenhouse gases are created by supply chains so to improve sustainability and profitability, companies must address the waste in the supply chain.
The waste occurs because supply chain data is in separate silos and decisions are made to optimize locally – not globally. In other words, each player in the supply chain makes a rational decision based on the information that they have. While that decision might be good for their organization, it might be a bad for the end-to-end supply chain.
Supply chain practitioners make decisions using faulty forecasts, old assumptions, and outdated tools.
ThroughPut provides an integrated view of company-wide operations by pulling data from all of your disparate systems.
Throughput can identify and manage constraints to free cash flow, while meeting revenue targets with output.
To make better decisions, supply chain practitioners need demand sensing with real-time intelligence that can be used to create better demand forecasts.
With demand sensing, companies can easily predict near-future demand patterns to streamline the flow of materials, processes, output, and free cash flow across your integrated supply chain.
Seth and the team at ThroughPut unlock operations agility and efficiency, to meet unpredictable customer demands, while creating uninterrupted flow of materials through supply chain networks. This approach minimizes waste and maximizes profitability.
