Data Science and Data Engineering


02.12.2025

Modern supply chains generate vast amounts of data across procurement, production, logistics, and customer fulfilment. Without the right tools, this information remains fragmented and underutilized. By applying advanced analytics and building scalable data infrastructure, organizations can reduce inefficiencies, anticipate disruptions, and improve customer satisfaction.

Overview

Our Data Science and Data Engineering services enable supply chain leaders to transform raw data into actionable insights. Our clients reach out to us when their supply chain data is scattered, unreliable, or not delivering real business value. They want to move beyond reports and dashboards to solutions that improve forecasting, visibility, and agility. We help by designing robust data pipelines, building scalable platforms, and applying advanced analytics and machine learning that transform data into practical decisions and measurable results and drive smarter decision-making across the entire supply chain.

Market Relevance & Challenges

Why This Matters Now

 

Supply chains are under pressure to be faster, smarter, and more resilient. Many companies struggle to connect new technologies and systems into something actionable. The reality is:

  • Data silos and poor data quality
    block accurate decision-making.
  • Volatile markets
    expose the limits of traditional forecasting.
  • Legacy IT systems
    can’t handle the volume and variety of today’s data.

 

How the Market is Evolving

 

Companies are investing in tools that forecast demand, disruptions, and capacity rather than just reporting past events. At the same time, supply chains are becoming more collaborative, requiring seamless data sharing across suppliers, partners, and customers. The rise in geopolitical risks, climate impacts, and pandemic-related disruptions have made proactive risk management a top priority. In addition to that, companies face growing pressure to track and report environmental impact, requiring more robust data capabilities.

 

Latest Developments in This Area

 

Companies are increasingly embracing AI and machine learning to move beyond traditional business intelligence dashboards, enabling predictive and prescriptive analytics that support smarter and faster decision-making in their supply chains. At the same time, cloud-based architectures and data lakes are becoming the foundation of modern data ecosystems, allowing the smooth integration of information from ERP, WMS, TMS, and external sources at scale. The increasing amount real-time data and IoT technologies, including sensors, telematics, and connected devices, provides continuous operational insights that require robust data engineering and analytics capabilities. In addition, generative AI and advanced simulation tools are opening new possibilities for scenario planning, digital twins, and automated insights, empowering supply chain leaders to optimize performance and resilience in a rapidly changing environment.

Pain Points Companies Face

  • Data Silos
    Disconnected ERP, logistics, and supplier systems hinder visibility and decision-making.

  • Low Data Quality
    Inconsistent, incomplete, or inaccurate data reduces trust in analytics outputs.

  • Poor Forecast Accuracy
    Traditional methods struggle with volatile demand and global disruptions.

  • Limited Real-Time Insights
    Many companies rely on lagging indicators, making them slow to react.

  • High Cost of Inefficiencies
    Excess inventory, delayed shipments, and supplier issues directly impact margins and customer satisfaction.

  • Scalability Challenges
    Legacy systems can’t keep up with the volume, variety, and velocity of today’s supply chain data.
