Connect, optimize and execute in real-time. Siloed decisions are a thing of the past.
Blue Yonder Network 2026.1 replaces fragmented supply chain views with a single, connected network and a set of enhanced capabilities beyond visibility. With expanded capabilities that provide visibility across inventory, transportation, and execution, teams can automates decisions and optimizes inventory and improve service levels. Key enhancements include:
-
Supply Chain Command Center (CA): Performance scorecards unify operations, carriers, vendors, and partners in one view giving operations leaders a single source of truth before they walk into a customer escalation or a leadership review with alerts and operations insights.
-
Enhanced Analytics: Sense temperature changes, container delays, capacity constraints, appointment delays, dock appointments, and service risks across operations with AI predictive analytics.
-
Network Capacity Synchronization: Reduce your dwell time, detention charges, eliminate empty miles, improve order fill and reduce last-minute expedites by aligning labor, inventory and transportation capacity across the network in real-time
-
AI forecasted order volume provides alerts at the distribution center, shift, order fill and warehouse capacity across the network to ensure demand is filled by customer requirements, cost-to-serve and network demand volume.
-
Inventory Visibility: Prevent stockouts, identify at-risk items, and enable on-the-fly rebalancing across SLAs, margins, and risk factors—with AI and ML-powered real-time inventory tracking across nodes, stores, and DCs.
-
Supplier Ordering: Expands network intelligence upstream to suppliers. Procurement decisions, carrying costs, service level commitments, and truck capacity are now part of the same optimization loop. AI generates purchase orders that balance network constraints, procurement decisions, and carrying costs while maintaining / exceeding service levels. Shipping calendars, vendor minimum orders and truck capacities are all factored into the decisions.
