1 Digital Supply Chain Institute Survey 2018 Survey Report

2 Four areas were surveyed Algorithm Council The secret to unlocking the power of the organization to manage demand and supply is to create an empowered crossfunctional team to ask the right questions, collect the right data and build the right algorithms to make the right datadriven decisions. We call this team the Algorithm Council. The Digital Supply Chain Institute is undertaking research to establish the right organizational structure, membership, skills, and technologies to make the Algorithm Council possible. Digital Supply Chain that Drives Revenue A Digital Supply Chain that drives Revenue will identify programs that can drive the demand stack - Demand stimulation, demand matching, demand management, and demand sensing - through DSC actions. Digital Supply Chain Accelerator Digital Supply Chain Accelerator program is designed to identify actions to accelerate a company s transformation to a Digital Supply Chain. Blockchain Digital Supply Chain Institute is focused on doing Proof-of-Value in the area of Blockchain and alsoprovide specific education and recommendations to companies on integrating blockchain technology to manage cross-enterprise Digital Supply Chain workflow
