Supply Chain Design & Planning
Supply chain management powers growth. Build a resilient, connected and intelligent supply chain with AI-driven insights. Leverage integrated data and advanced decision science to design and improve supply chains so they can adapt to disruptions, optimize operations and drive sustainable growth.
WHAT WE DO
Challenges we solve
Supply chain resiliency
With unpredictable disruptions threatening business continuity, designing a centralized, adaptable and coordinated supply chain through global capability centers (GCCs) is no longer optional.
Connected supply chain planning
Siloed supply chain planning causes inefficiencies and slow decisions. A connected supply chain with IBP and planning-as-a-service synchronizes demand, supply and production, enhancing agility and service levels.
Supply chain network design and optimization
Design for today’s challenges and tomorrow’s opportunities. Achieving the right balance between cost, speed and resilience requires continuous optimization to improve efficiency, maximize reach and reduce complexities.
Supply chain management automation, simulation and advanced analytics
Traditional decision-making is slow and reactive, limiting agility. Imagine a supply chain strategy where real-time simulation, predictive analytics and automation enable proactive responses to address risks before they escalate.
Launch planning
Product launches demand a supply chain strategy built for precision and speed. Without the right balance of supply readiness, risk mitigation and demand alignment, even the best products can miss revenue opportunities.
Supply chain transformation
Supply chains must evolve from rigid, fragmented processes into intelligent, agile systems. From AI-powered decision-making to end-to-end visibility, the future belongs to firms that prioritize supply chain design and planning.
HOW WE DO IT
ZS’s approach
Future-proof your supply chain with AI, automation and predictive intelligence. We design connected, data-driven supply chains that accelerate decision-making and improve performance.
AI and machine learning implementation
We enable AI-powered forecasting, intelligent supply allocation and real-time visibility. Our data-driven models improve accuracy, automate planning and reduce manual intervention, helping businesses make smarter, faster decisions.
End-to-end connectivity
We integrate fragmented data across enterprise resource planning, transportation management and warehouse management systems and external sources, creating a unified supply chain platform with improved collaboration and timely decision-making.
Predictive risk mitigation
We leverage predictive analytics to monitor risks across suppliers, logistics and demand fluctuations. By continuously assessing key indicators, we enable proactive mitigation strategies to minimize disruptions and ensure supply stability.
Data-driven rapid decision-making
We enable real-time data integration and contextualization, ensuring businesses can react quickly to demand shifts, optimize inventory and improve service levels through AI-driven insights.
Dynamic scenario planning
Our AI-powered scenario modeling helps businesses simulate demand and supply fluctuations, optimize resources and proactively adjust plans to minimize risk and enhance operational efficiency.
Intelligent automation and optimization
We use AI to automate demand sensing, inventory management and logistics so organizations can reduce complexity and enable faster, more accurate responses to disruptions.
