Overview

Traditional business intelligence has always been about producing insights into data about the past: last quarter's trends, last month's overtime, last week's sales, etc. Those insights are still important but they're no longer sufficient. Supply chain management using machine learning's (ML) predictive capabilities, on the other hand, helps buyers and suppliers get out in front of changes and stay resilient in the face of major disruptions. ML technology can process and analyse data from every layer of an enterprise to provide both high-level and incredibly granular forecasting for demand, delivery, customer behaviour and forward and reverse supply flow.

This module provides participants with essential knowledge of ML and Deep Learning using commercially available software and tools. Participants will also gain an understanding of big data, business data and analytics in business. They will learn how to generate business value from the application of Google AppSheet and RPA and be able to create business analytics reports and analyse business data sets to generate facts, valuable outcomes and sustainable impacts.

Learning Objectives

At the end of the 3-day module, participants will be able to:

Manage “The Big Data” in the supply chain
Align Industry 4.0 solutions within the supply chain
Understand Artificial Intelligence, ML and Deep Learning
Learn about immersive technologies and their applications
Gain an understanding of intelligent transport and distribution systems

Assessment

As part of the requirement for SkillsFuture Singapore, there will be an assessment conducted at the end of the course. The mode of assessment, which is up to the trainer’s discretion, may be an online quiz, a presentation or based on classroom exercises.

Participants are required to attain a minimum of 75% attendance and pass the associated assessment in order to receive a digital Certificate of Completion issued by Singapore Management University.
