This blog has been co-written by Carol Johnston, VP, Energy, Utilities and Resources and Sophie Graham, Chief Sustainability Officer. The energy transition is no longer just about sustainability, it’s about affordability, energy independence, and resilience. Two years on from Europe’s last gas crisis – then triggered by the Russian invasion of Ukraine, now by the Iran war, businesses across the globe are again faced with supply chain disruptions and growing energy prices.  Now more than ever, reducing dependency on fossil fuels via AI-enhanced energy diversification and optimization is becoming a critical solution to energy security concerns. 

Service operations are more complex than ever. Demand is unpredictable, resources are tight, and customers now expect immediate, frictionless service. But most organizations still plan in disconnected layers, long term forecasting here, shift planning there, real time scheduling somewhere else.  The result? Constant firefighting, fragile schedules, and teams stretched thin.  Multi Time Horizon Planning changes this by connecting every

1. Assess the current state Before you recommend any software solution, you need to understand the current state of your client’s supply chain. What are the main goals, challenges, and pain points? How do they measure their performance and efficiency? What are the existing systems, tools, and data sources they use? How do they communicate

What is a digital worker in manufacturing?  A digital worker is an AI-powered operational agent that can execute specific business tasks across systems, workflows and teams.  Unlike traditional automation tools that follow fixed rules, digital workers can work with context, interpret operational information, make governed decisions and coordinate actions across multiple systems.  In manufacturing environments, digital workers are typically

I just got back from the 2026 Gartner Supply Chain Symposium/Xpo, and one message came through louder than anything else: AI isn’t coming, it’s already here. The real problem isn’t whether organizations have the technology. It’s whether they’re structured to use it.  Most organizations are trying to bolt AI onto workforce models built for a different era, ones built around human-centric decisions, sequential workflows, and functional silos. And the gap between AI

1. Define your inventory needs Before you start ordering, storing, and moving your inventory, you need to have a clear idea of what you need, when you need it, and where you need it. This means you have to analyze your project scope, schedule, budget, and quality requirements, and identify the types, quantities, and specifications

5 Ways Consumer‑Grade AI Fails in Industrial Operations And Why Industrial AI Is the Only AI Built to Run the Real World AI is everywhere, but most of it was never built for industrial operations. Tools designed for documents, dashboards, and demos break down fast when confronted with assets, uptime, safety, and execution at scale.

Why quoting has become a pressure point for manufacturers In many manufacturing organizations, quoting still relies on a mix of ERP data, spreadsheets, and informal checks with engineering or pricing teams. That approach worked when product ranges were limited and variation was manageable. Today, it creates friction. Manufacturers are selling more configurable products, supporting multiple

1. Assess Risks To prevent disruptions from supplier delays, begin by assessing the risks within your supply chain. Identify which suppliers have had issues in the past, the likelihood of future delays, and the potential impact on your inventory. You should evaluate the criticality of each product and consider alternative sources or additional suppliers for your

Most logistics teams can tell you how many shipments moved last week. Far fewer can tell you why costs came in over budget, which carrier decisions drove the variance, or what they’d do differently next time. That gap between activity and understanding is where logistics intelligence lives, and closing it isn’t about doing more with
