AI for Operations and Supply Chain

A premium, complete and practical course on applying artificial intelligence across operations and supply chain in 2026 — for operations managers, supply chain planners, procurement and logistics professionals, plant and warehouse managers, and S&OP leaders. You will learn where AI genuinely creates value across the end-to-end chain: demand forecasting and planning, inventory optimization, procurement and supplier management, logistics and route optimization, warehouse and fulfillment automation, production and manufacturing planning, quality control and predictive maintenance, end-to-end visibility and risk management, intelligent process automation (RPA + AI), S&OP and integrated business planning, and sustainability and cost optimization. Just as importantly, you will learn where AI must not decide on its own — safety, large contracts, and worker monitoring — and how to keep commercial and operational data confidential. A dedicated thread runs through the course on governance: GDPR for personal data of employees and drivers, the EU AI Act treatment of worker-management systems, human oversight of critical decisions, and verifying AI output before acting. The guiding principle throughout: use AI to assist operations professionals, never to replace human judgment. Includes real example prompts, workflows, checklists and references to real enterprise tools (SAP, Oracle, Blue Yonder, Kinaxis, Manhattan, Coupa) and 2026 AI models, plus a comprehensive final assessment. Educational content, not legal or professional advice.
