How to fail forward and other capabilities to become AI-successful
Volvo Group is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of trucks, buses, construction equipment as well as marine and industrial engines. All these machines requires efficient distribution of spare parts to ensure uptime. This results in a large distribution network consisting in total over 7000 nodes which handles over 30 millions order lines every year. Our vision is to be able to orchestrate this network in an efficient manner and we believe that analytics is the way to get there. Not only through a central function, but throughout the whole organization! Join the presentation and discover what we think are the needed capabilities to transform a large and well-established organization into becoming analytically capable!
