Faysal AzizAI-Enhanced Supply Chain Management with Snowflake
Connect the data. Predict the demand. Strengthen the supply chain.
Why this course
Duration: 2 Days
Industry Focus: Supply Chain and Logistics
Supply chain decisions are often made across disconnected systems containing purchasing records, supplier information, inventory balances, warehouse activity, customer demand, transportation events, and delivery performance. When this information remains fragmented, organizations struggle to recognize shortages, demand changes, supplier delays, and logistics problems early enough to respond effectively. AI-enhanced supply chain management addresses this challenge by transforming operational data into forecasts, alerts, and decision-ready insights.
This two-day course introduces the practical use of AI and data analytics across demand forecasting, inventory management, supplier performance, and logistics optimization. Participants will examine how Snowflake can provide a connected data foundation for integrating supply chain information and supporting near-real-time analysis. The course also covers Snowflake ML capabilities for time-series forecasting and anomaly detection, including the preparation of imperfect operational data and the monitoring of deployed models.
The emphasis will remain on realistic business requirements rather than abstract theory. The instructor has over 30 years of industry experience and will deliver content shaped by current industry demand, operational priorities, and implementation realities instead of presenting the subject as a purely academic discipline. The scope is intentionally focused so that the essential concepts can be covered meaningfully within two days.
