Scientific Talk Series: Transforming Supply Chains with Geographic Analytics

Scientific Talk Series:

Transforming Supply Chains with Geographic Analytics

 

In a world of big data, traditional business analytics in Supply Chain Management reaches quickly its boundaries: Data is plentifully available, but the effort to gather, clean and to understand the data can be a painful, lengthy process. Furthermore, the results of the analysis might fail the reality check. Geographic Analytics (GA) and Geographic Decision Support Systems (GDSS) have been developed to address these issues in management, radically speeding up the time-to-insight by leveraging the visualization of data on maps and by shifting the analytics from myriads of data points to visuals on a geographic map. GA and GDSS enable geographic decision making more effectively, with deeper insight and with better alignment. Featuring Full Professor at the Business Department of the University of Applied Sciences in Fulda, Germany, Prof. Dr. Jozo Acksteiner, he will introduce the concept of Geographic Analytics and how it is being applied in Supply Chain Management. The presentation will deep dive into used cases such as Pandemic (Covid-19) Response Systems (an example here: https://www.hs-fulda.de/en/wirtschaft/fight-covid-19), Supply Chain Disaster Recovery and Customer Structure Optimisation.
