Operations · Azure AI Foundry

Supply chain risks surfaced before they become disruptions.

Real-time supply chain risk analysis built on Azure AI Foundry. Ingests logistics, supplier, and demand data — uses Azure OpenAI to interpret risk signals and surface recommended actions before disruptions hit production.

How It Works

From raw data signals to actionable risk intelligence.

01

Data Ingestion & Unification

We connect your logistics systems, supplier databases, and external data feeds into Azure Data Factory pipelines — creating a unified operational data layer.

  • ERP & WMS integration via Azure API Management
  • External logistics & weather APIs connected
  • Supplier data normalised and deduplicated
02

Risk Signal Analysis

Azure OpenAI reads the unified data stream and identifies risk patterns — supplier delays, port disruptions, demand spikes — contextualised against your specific supply network.

  • Azure OpenAI GPT-4o interprets risk signals
  • Severity scoring based on business impact
  • Historical pattern comparison for context
03

Recommendation & Alert Engine

When risks exceed configured thresholds, the agent generates specific, actionable recommendations and routes them to the right stakeholders via Teams or email.

  • Prioritised risk queue with recommended actions
  • Automatic escalation for critical disruptions
  • Full audit trail in Azure Monitor

Capabilities

What this agent can do.

Multi-Source Data Ingestion

Ingests logistics feeds, supplier APIs, weather data, port status, and demand signals via Azure Data Factory — unified into a single risk intelligence layer.

Natural Language Risk Summaries

Azure OpenAI translates raw risk signals into plain-English briefings for procurement and ops teams — no data science skills required to understand the output.

Re-Routing Recommendations

When a supplier or logistics lane shows elevated risk, the agent generates specific alternative routing options with cost and lead-time comparisons.

Demand Forecast Integration

Pulls demand forecast data from your planning system and cross-references against supply risk signals to prioritise which disruptions matter most.

Supplier Risk Scoring

Continuously scores each active supplier on reliability, financial health signals, geographic concentration, and recent delivery performance.

Executive Alert Dashboard
