Elevating from the 'integrated' to 'dynamic and intellectual' supply chain model enables companies to view their supply chains as adaptable ecosystems of processes, people, capital assets, technology and data. Changeable consumers. Dwindling product life cycles. Product and service characteristics recurrently prejudiced by social channels. The requirements and ordering methods of the modern consumer are both shifting and fast-tracking, and manufacturers and services organizations are struggling to catch up. Mix in geo-political anarchy, unrestrained currency markets and natural disasters, and companies are trying to somehow reconcile and elevate their dynamic and intellectual supply chains with volatility that is nearly twice as much as anything they have experienced in the past 30 years.
The digitization of the supply chain enables companies to address changing customer requirements, supply challenges and efficiency expectations. Digitization promises new speed, efficiency, and flexibility for your supply chain. But how will you get from here there? There are three key trends which help us to manage the current volatile supply chain - Real time replanning, cognitive logistics and intelligent warehousing
Real time re-planning
Real-time re-planning based on supply chain information is revolutionizing the way supply chains are managed. It is giving companies the insight and details they need to operate accurately, effectively - and most importantly - more quickly than ever before. No longer will companies be waiting until the end of the month (or longer) to review the effectiveness of their supply chain.

Intelligent Warehousing
Intelligent Warehouse Management System (iWMS) allows you to manage and optimize your warehouse, storage and internal logistics operations. Intelligent Warehouse Control System allows automated storage and transportation equipment to be fully controlled as one integrated system. Intelligent WMS is developed on the latest technology and ensures real-time data is available for ERP, CRM and e-commerce to be fully and transparently integrated to warehousing and logistics operations, and data to be available to systems and services that need them - when they need them. iWMS helps in order consolidation, smart storage allocation, improved volumetric utilization, real-time velocity-based rack placement, real-time stock check and audits, and intelligent auto-charging.
In this back ground CII Institute of Logistics is organizing the sixth edition of the Conference "Next Generation Supply Chain" with the theme "Elevating Dynamic & Intellectual Supply Chain" on 19 June 2018 at Hotel Le Meriden, New Delhi.
The Conference is deep delved in to the following topics:
