Supply chains have spent decades being optimized for efficiency.
But today's leaders are being asked to optimize for something much harder: uncertainty.
Demand changes. Suppliers fall behind. Costs move. Disruptions happen. And decisions that once had days to be made increasingly need to happen in hours.
AI introduces another possibility: supply chains that don't just respond faster, but help people anticipate what's coming.
Join Microsoft, HSO, and a small group of supply chain leaders for a candid conversation about what that future actually looks like.
Rather than focusing on AI for AI's sake, we'll explore where intelligence, automation, and human judgment can combine to create more resilient operations, better decisions, and teams that spend less time reacting.
The Conversation
Can your supply chain see what's coming?
How AI, connected data, and better visibility can help organizations identify risks, constraints, and opportunities earlier.
What should your people stop doing?
Where agents and automation can take on repetitive coordination, monitoring, analysis, and administrative work so teams can focus on exceptions and decisions that require judgment.
Where should humans stay in control?
The decisions where supplier relationships, context, experience, negotiation, and judgment still matter more than automation.
What happens when plans meet reality?
How organizations can build operations that respond faster when demand changes, suppliers fall behind, costs move, or unexpected disruption occurs.
Where is AI actually worth it?
A practical discussion about where AI and emerging capabilities in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management can create measurable value today, where the technology is still evolving, and what may not be worth pursuing yet.
What should the supply chain of the future become?
How leaders can move beyond isolated AI experiments toward an operating model that balances efficiency, resilience, intelligence, cost, and human expertise.
Who Should Attend?
Supply chain, operations, manufacturing, procurement, and technology leaders responsible for building organizations that need to perform not only when everything goes according to plan, but when it doesn't.
