Using cloud, data, artificial intelligence (AI) and analytics,
the supply chain nerve center provides n-tier transparency,
allowing organizations to identify risks beyond tier one and tier
two suppliers by giving deeper visibility into their network of
suppliers and subcontractors. It turns data into actionable
insights and improves decision-making by sensing factors such as
whether suppliers align with an organization’s Environmental,
Social and Governance (ESG) goals.
With an initial focus on the consumer products, high tech,
industrial manufacturing and automotive industries, the supply
chain nerve center features assets, accelerators and assessments.
It includes a supply chain resilience stress test, developed by
Accenture and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), to
identify potential points of failure, assess related financial
exposures, and define appropriate mitigation strategies and
actions. Additionally, digital twin simulation software from Cosmo
Tech helps organizations see the vulnerabilities in their supply
chain, simulate the behavior of their supply chain under heavy
loads, and build robust mitigation plans throughout their planning
process. Enterprise Navigator, a data-driven Accenture tool,
identifies where to focus to capture the greatest business value,
finding opportunities to standardize across processes, data, people
and technology.
Accenture has developed more than 30 industry use cases for the
supply chain nerve center. Through its recently announced
generative AI collaboration with SAP, the company is exploring how
generative AI and Large Language Models (LLM) can further augment
the solution’s capabilities.
“To build intelligent and resilient supply chains, organizations
need a strong digital core that is powered by the cloud, data and
AI,” said Caspar Borggreve, senior managing director and lead,
Accenture SAP Business Group, Accenture. “By collaborating on the
supply chain nerve center, and helping SAP develop new capabilities
for its SAP IBP solution to accelerate its long-term roadmap, we
are enabling organizations reinvent their supply chains to deliver
more value.”
Accenture and SAP have already collaborated on hundreds of
supply chain transformations for clients across industries, using
SAP IBP and components of the supply chain nerve center. One global
high-tech client is realizing greater visibility into component
supply data across its partner ecosystem, enabling it to prioritize
its build-plan, optimize resources and improve production. A global
consumer products company identified and resolved large risks
within its supply chain and enhanced existing business continuity
plans after conducting a stress test.
“Teaming with Accenture on the co-development of new
capabilities and functionalities of SAP IBP will help our customers
realize a greater return on their investment, while offering
significant enhancements to the supply chain nerve center,” said
Dominik Metzger, Head of Digital Supply Chain, SAP. “Together, we
are helping to define an intelligent path to achieve responsible
and risk resilient supply chains.”
In addition to integrating with the SAP IBP solution,
Accenture’s supply chain nerve center offering can interface with
other SAP solutions such as SAP S/4HANA® Cloud, SAP Business
Network, SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP), and the SAP
Datasphere and SAP Analytics Cloud solutions. Thanks to an open
architecture and composable technology approach, the offering
integrates with SAP software-compatible industry solutions from
other ecosystem providers.
