Two-thirds of respondents are either in the process of rolling out or have fully implemented public cloud infrastructure for their applications. Private clouds are also receiving interest, but over 60% of respondents remain in the consideration or Proof-of-Concept (PoC) stage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 12pt;\">\u201cLess than half of respondents currently have the capability to perform prescriptive and predictive analytics, highlighting a gap between ambition and readiness. Agentic AI systems are beginning to deliver more predictive insights, but usage remains in the early stages. Data management and model customization will be crucial for organizations to unlock the value of AI agents,\u201d concluded Wiggin.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI Adoption Surges in Supply Chains as Companies Prioritize Network Intelligence Organizations are rapidly exploring and deploying AI-enabled solutions within their supply chain operations.
