New eBook Explores AI and Advanced Technologies in Manufacturing and Supply Chains
Lisa Anderson, a leading expert in manufacturing strategy and supply chain transformation and president of LMA Consulting Group Inc., is releasing a new ebook, "AI & Advanced Technologies in Manufacturing." The ebook explores how manufacturers and distributors can harness AI and advanced technologies to drive performance wisely.
“AI is sweeping through every corner of the enterprise,” said Anderson. “The winners will be those who apply it with discipline, tying use cases to real bottlenecks, aligning Sales, Inventory & Operations Planning (SIOP) with data and keeping humans in control for judgment, safety and accountability.”
"AI & Advanced Technologies in Manufacturing" gathers perspectives from leaders across strategy, supply chain, technology/IT, ERP, finance, talent/HR, sales and marketing, legal/risk, real estate, and international trade. Contributors document AI’s impact across the value chain, highlighting where it creates measurable results and where governance is essential.
The ebook covers topics including SIOP and how to use AI to unify signals across ERP/CRM/CPQ/PLM/MES/WMS, moving from pilots to ROI, data advantages for mid-markets, automation-ready footprint strategies, and software strategies such as secure-by-design IT/OT, updated ERP/software licensing for AI use, and HR fairness/compliance and ethical use in marketing/sales.
“AI can improve service, margin and cash, but only when it’s embedded in processes that already work and when people know how to steer it,” Anderson added. “This ebook shows where the value is and how to pursue it responsibly.”
The eBook is available now at AI & Advanced Technologies in Manufacturing. Organizations can also explore SIOP resources and Anderson’s Supply Chain Bytes video series for ongoing, practical insights.
