Supply chain optimization platform

The building materials distribution supply chain is fragmented and includes manual business processes that are heavily reliant on human capital. The overall goal of this initiative is to use data inputs that are readily available in disparate systems and use advanced AI techniques to solve three of the most pressing bottlenecks in the building materials supply chain: accurately forecasting demand, maximizing truck loads, and optimizing warehouse layouts.

Darren Edery, CEO, Adastra: ”By using AI to enable data-driven decisions on these critical elements of Taiga’s supply chain there will be a direct impact on the consumer in the form of more accurate inventory information, lower costs, and a wider selection of products. Standard Building Supplies, one of Taiga’s retail customers, will participate in the project and provide real-time data that will be integrated into Taiga’s just-in-time inventory model to create tangible impact along the building materials supply chain.”
