Applying Machine Learning to Supply Chain Problems

JDA software (a leading supply chain software company) has formed a Data Science Lab dedicated to the promise and power of Machine Learning. I spoke with Marie-Claude Cote Head Data Scientist at JDA. She described the lab as a group of data science PhD's and practitioners partnered with supply chain domain experts. Cote cited several examples of where JDA labs has successfully applied or is looking to apply machine learning to a Supply Chain business problem. Identify a problem, decide on an approach, execute a Proof of Concept and when you see that it works you scale the solution to work with all your data at production levels.
