C.H. Robinson Launches New AI Technology to Enhance Supply Chain Management
C.H. Robinson announced it has built an AI technology designed to both operate a shipper's global supply chain and also continuously assess and improve its performance. The company said, "Now serving the company's 4PL Managed Solutions customers, a new Lean AI Engineer works in concert with the Lean AI Planner introduced last year to create one connected system that uniquely enhances a supply chain as it runs. The Lean AI Engineer can assess an entire supply chain in 25 to 30 minutes and determine improvements before performance is impacted - compared to supply chain assessments that typically take up to four weeks and look backward at what has happened instead of what should happen. While the Lean AI Engineer delivers intel, the Lean AI Planner manages shipments through hundreds of interconnected AI agents and in turn feeds more data back to the Lean AI Engineer to develop even smarter refinements." In the coming weeks, the Lean AI Engineer will roll out for more customers and begin assessing a multitude of other factors, such as carrier performance.
