Virtual Watch Tower (VWT)
The Virtual Watch Tower (VWT) adopts a networked approach, fostering close collaboration among stakeholders to enhance supply chain visibility and resilience. Developed by A*STAR and the Research Institutes of Sweden (RISE), with support from MPA/SMI, this initiative focuses on creating AI tools that enable stakeholders to coordinate effectively, streamline processes, reduce costs, and boost productivity.
The objectives
Improve Supply Chain Visibility
Enable a transparent and connected supply chain network to enhance operational insights
Enhance Coordination Among Stakeholders
Facilitate smoother collaboration across various parties for a more resilient supply chain
Achieve Cost Efficiency
Optimise operations to reduce costs and increase efficiency across supply chain processes
The impact
The Virtual Watch Tower provides a robust foundation for improved visibility, coordination, and resilience in the supply chain. By leveraging AI-driven tools, it enables stakeholders to optimise their operations, resulting in a more responsive and efficient supply chain.
