Today, for the "Shipping Wars" series produced by The Wall Street Journal, here it is the third video. It explores Walmart's strategy to ensure faster and more accurate deliveries for its customers. This approach, which leverages the widespread distribution of stores and the use of automation and #AI, is proving to be effective. In this second revolution of the last mile, adopting new technologies is crucial for addressing industry challenges. These technologies are vital not only for ensuring faster shipping but also for accurate forecasting. Indeed, forecasting can no longer depend solely on past sales data; it now requires sophisticated statistical models that integrate thousands of dynamic, independent exogenous variables.

This video by CNBC provides a nice overview At UNFI, the broad ecosystem of AI models developed by my team have delivered tens of millions of dollars in operational insights over the years, and an 850+% ROI for my team this fiscal year alone. Solutions developed include: -Shrink: "Root Cause" Analysis and mitigation. Massive benefit. -Pricing: Optimal pricing strategies -Customer Experience: Conversion of hundreds of thousands of unstructured customer feedback interactions, to highly structured and actionable insights. -Much more...
