University of Maryland
College Park, MD 20742
The Fourth Annual Smith School and IBM Business Analytics Workshop brings together thought leaders from the University of Maryland’s Robert H. Smith School of Business, IBM and the federal government to discuss the application of advanced analytics to supply chain management.
Companies and government agencies have recognized for many years that understanding and managing their supply chains brings competitive advantage for businesses and high performance to the mission for government agencies. Over the past few years there has been unprecedented change to supply chain data. The availability of data creates opportunities to analyze, extract and utilize this data to identify patterns, and channel this information to better decision making.
Topics:
- Leveraging analytics methodologies utilizing supply chain data
- Communicating insights from existing studies
- Identifying potential applications of similar techniques to new problems
- A panel discussion will seek to analyze and highlight synergies across the ideas and methodologies provided by the presentations
Registration is complimentary through the generous support of IBM.
