This session will be an opportunity for the participants, both industry and suppliers, to share their successes and challenges in inventory management as it relates to meeting work management and maintenance support needs, and meeting financial goals. Each participant will make a short presentation followed by robust discussions and suggestions regarding these inventory management challenges to include use of developing Artificial Intelligence models and advanced algorithms and use of Parts Quality Initiatives and/or enhanced receipt inspections. Also, participant discussions should include any innovative ideas in utilizing industry data for enhanced supply chain purposes. Given that there hasn’t been a face-to-face Supply Chain industry summit in well over two years, this is a perfect time to get back together and continue the successes of the past summits.
