Value Case for Real Time Supply Chain Event Management

Supply chain disruptions such as port strikes, natural disasters, and system outages are costly and cause a great deal of impact.

Dow wants to leverage real time monitoring, big-data analytics, and machine learning technology to increase the predictive and communicative power of their existing supply chain.
