Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) has become a transformative force in supply chain and operations management, offering significant enhancements in efficiency and resilience. This paper examines the integration of AI technologies such as machine learning, predictive analytics, and real-time data processing in demand forecasting, inventory management, logistics, and risk mitigation. By analyzing diverse data sources, AI improves demand forecasting accuracy, reduces inventory costs, optimizes logistics routes, and enhances supply chain visibility. Case studies and data-driven insights demonstrate how AI-driven systems enable companies to adapt to market dynamics, prevent disruptions, and achieve substantial cost savings. The findings suggest that embracing AI is essential for businesses aiming to optimize their supply chain operations and build robust, resilient frameworks capable of withstanding future challenges.
