The AI in Supply Chain Strategy Roundtable, jointly hosted by IDC and InterSystems in Singapore, convened senior leaders from logistics, healthcare, life sciences, and technology to explore how unified, trusted data underpins AI-driven transformation in modern supply chains. Led by Stephanie Krishnan, Associate Vice President at IDC Insights, and Mark Holmes, Head of Global Supply Chain Market Strategy at InterSystems, the half-day event combined thought-leadership presentations with peer-to-peer discussion on real-world implementation challenges and use cases.
Key Report Stats:
- 57% of Asia/Pacific life-sciences firms struggle with poor visibility and agility due to fragmented systems and siloed analytics
- InterSystems achieved 99.999% on-time-in-full performance for PALTAC.
- Partner on-boarding reduced from 6 months to 2 days for CFAO using InterSystems solutions.
Participants represented a cross-section of stakeholders including public-health providers, med-tech manufacturers, logistics providers, and technology partners, each navigating similar pressures: global trade volatility, regulatory tightening, and the need to modernize legacy infrastructure without jeopardizing business continuity.
