Control Tower Digital Brain

Track and resolve specific business issues through improved orchestration and decision intelligence​ to continually deliver a connected customer and brand experience.

Customers just want to know where their stuff is and when they’ll get it. But your business demands more. An intelligent control goes beyond visibility-driven approaches to add a layer of strategic thinking, orchestration, workflow processing and optimization to address much more specific and business-critical questions, from “how to protect margins” or “how to prevent out-of-stocks and maintain service levels” to “how best to deliver against ever-changing customer expectations.” It’s about constantly uncovering better business practices and shopper experiences. 

How does a digital brain work?

A digital brain can answer these challenges by sitting above existing systems where it can spot and solve role-based use cases by:

  • Continuously sensing and understanding in real time
  • Providing end-to-end visibility​
  • Leveraging artificial intelligence and optimization models to predict business outcomes
  • Proactively engaging decision-makers and recommending specific actions
  • Automating particular use cases and scenarios to run autonomously

  • Multi-echelon inventory​ optimization to balance inventory against service levels and cost models
  • Improved promise to delivery capabilities from available to promise (ATP), toward capable to promise (CTP) and profitable to promise (PTP) decision-making
