Building with the HERE platform technical deep-dive

The value chain for delivering technology solutions is not only complex but evolving at a more accelerated pace due to global disruptions such as Semiconductor, Ukraine, Covid, inflation, and Environmental challenges.

Shifting to data-driven predictive supply chains

A number of black swan events have disrupted supply chains globally and made extracting value from the mountain of logistics data more challenging than ever. This has led to companies forming partnerships that enable them to better manage their data and transition from reactive decision-making to predictive supply chains. Join AWS and DHL Supply Chain in conversation with HERE Technologies about how location-powered analytics and predictive ETAs are key to building a predictive and resilient supply chain ecosystem, giving you the visibility you need to optimize your supply chain end-to-end and pivot quickly to meet growing customer expectations.
