Hello everyone
My name is Hong Mo Yang, Senior Vice
President of manufacturing industries
at Blue Yonder. Today I'm going to walk
you through how Blue Yonder
working with Microsoft Azure, is
delivering
real business benefits to our customers
leading supply chains.
As you are aware supply chain issues are
making headlines
whether it's in Wall Street jJournal or
evening news or
other media outlets. As business leaders,
many of you are facing the impetus and
pressure
to deliver business outcomes, just as
some of our customers have recently been
able to deliver
ranging from GE Appliances, CNHI,
Phillip Morris, Tata and many others.
Now at Blue Yonder we understand how
supply chain decisions
are impacting the total shareholder
returns of
revenue growth, cost to serve our margins,
cash to serve or working capital that's
required.
And because our customers are customer
centric,
being able to measure customer service
level as measured by their
customers. On top of that
increasingly, sustainability is another
business objective that many of our
customers are prioritizing.
And we also know that your business is
not
one of monolithic averages
uh but that you have multiple streams of
business
that is represented by base volume
sometimes incremental or promotional
volumes
the innovation or new product
introductions that you have to manage
multiple times a year
and then increasingly important channel
is the e-commerce channel.
And so the goal that you have to balance
is you know the supply network decisions
related to these streams of business
across the operational total shareholder
returns
of revenue cost to serve, cash to
serve,
customer service level. Plus
sustainability goals that you have to
meet or manage to exceed
that you have as targets that you've
laid out in your business plan.
So we at Blue Yonder enable our
customers to better manage
their supply chains by focusing on
industry specific use cases.
These industry-specific use cases are
pre-configured workflows that address
these processes that you conduct
and help facilitate and identify
how you're performing against your
business plan targets.
And if there are gaps again facilitating
specific sets of decisions and actions
in order to meet or exceed your business
plan.
These sets of industry specific use
cases are enabled
through our market leading proven
scalable you know planning
execution and commerce services and
applications
that is powered by Blue Yonder's own
Luminate Platform.
And on top of being able to leverage
these
out of the box planning execution and
commerce applications,
we also enable you through our Luminate
Platform
to extend the capabilities
to the ecosystem of partners who may be
looking to deliver
additional capabilities, or for customers
to develop
further you know
proprietary competitive advantaged
workflows and capabilities. So now
you might ask well how does Microsoft
Azure coming to this picture?
Glad you asked that.
What you see in the middle is what I
just showed in terms of the industry use
cases
and that's all leveraging the
capabilities
and integrates with various capabilities
supported by Microsoft Azure
infrastructure and capabilities. You can
see
cloud data, you know Azure
platform
in storage some of the capabilities
delivered through PowerBI
and so on and so forth.
And what this is enabling is
to deliver against the promise of
Microsoft industry priority scenarios of
being able to deliver
resilient supply chain modern workplace
and data slash AI and edge computing
capabilities.
So between the capabilities that we have
at Blue Yonder and specific supply chain
applications
and capabilities and Microsoft's
industry priority scenarios, we're able
to enable
our customers to be on the leading edge
of delivering
superb business outcomes for their
supply chain.

discovery sessions and points of view
sessions
