AI agents in SCM explained in plain language: from bots to agents, from skills to governance, with the demand review agent as a practical example.
In our webinars in May, we showed live just how much leverage agentic AI can create in supply chain management. The response was huge, but it also made one thing clear: curiosity is high, yet so is the uncertainty caused by the flood of new tech terminology.
After the big “what”, many people now simply want to understand: How does this actually work? And what is really behind all those buzzwords?
On July 15 at 12:00 PM, that is exactly what we will cover. We will set the hype aside and take a practical look under the hood.
Important upfront: this is not an IT deep dive. Our goal is to make AI agents in SCM transparent, tangible and understandable for everyone.
What to expect
- No more tech jargon: We translate terms like skills, harness, LLM or sandbox into clear business language.
- From bot to agent: What distinguishes a real, reasoning AI agent from a simple, rigid automation script?
- Trust instead of black box: How do data sources such as ERP data or external APIs interact with control mechanisms and governance so that results remain reliable?
Practical case: the demand review agent under the microscope
As a concrete example, we will once again use our familiar demand review agent. This time, however, we will focus on what happens behind the scenes: how the agent is structured, how you guide it, and where instructions or planning know-how are actually stored.
You will see, without needing any programming knowledge, how the different building blocks fit together to create reliable and traceable processes in day-to-day operations.
Who is this webinar for?
- Anyone who wants to understand the logic behind successful AI agents
- Professionals and decision-makers in SCM, operations and logistics who want to speak confidently about AI
- Curious minds who do not want AI in the company to remain a black box, but want to understand it as a transparent assistant
(Note: Even if you did not attend the May webinars, you can join without any problem. We will bring everyone up to speed on the technological foundation.)
Attention: The webinar language is German.
