9.10 AM：Digitalisation and AI in Supply Chains: From Systems to Execution

As organisations accelerate investment in digital systems and artificial intelligence, a clear gap is emerging: AI capability is advancing, but execution capability is not keeping pace. Many companies now have access to powerful systems, platforms, and tools, yet translating them into consistent operational outcomes remains a challenge.

This keynote introduces a simple three-layer model—Systems, Workflows, and Outcomes—to explain where this gap occurs. While systems continue to evolve, real value is realised only when workflows are redesigned and embedded in daily operations.

Through practical examples spanning planning and procurement, the session will highlight where AI is already delivering impact, where it is falling short, and why many initiatives fail to scale. The keynote lays the foundation for the Forum by shifting the focus from technology adoption to execution—offering a clear lens for understanding how organisations can build more responsive and resilient supply chains.

上午 9:10：供应链中的数字化和人工智能：从系统到执行

随着各机构加速投资数字化系统和人工智能，一个明显的差距正在显现：人工智能能力不断提升，但执行能力却未能跟上步伐。许多公司现在拥​​有强大的系统、平台和工具，但如何将它们转化为一致的运营成果仍然是一个挑战。

本次主题演讲将介绍一个简单的三层模型——系统、工作流程和成果——来解释这一差距的根源。虽然系统不断发展演进，但只有重新设计工作流程并将其融入日常运营，才能真正实现其价值。

本次演讲将通过涵盖规划和采购的实际案例，重点阐述人工智能在哪些方面已经产生影响，在哪些方面存在不足，以及为什么许多项目无法规模化。本次主题演讲将论坛的重点从技术应用转移到执行层面，为各组织构建更具响应性和韧性的供应链提供了一个清晰的视角，从而为论坛奠定了基础。

9.30 AM：AI in Supply Chain Execution: Where It Works and Where It Breaks

Artificial intelligence is already being deployed across supply chain functions—from planning and procurement to logistics and execution. Yet results remain uneven. While some organisations are seeing tangible improvements, many continue to struggle to translate AI capabilities into consistent operational outcomes.

Building on the keynote’s perspective that AI capability is advancing while execution capability is not keeping pace, this session focuses on what is реально happening on the ground.

The discussion will examine where AI is already working in execution, where it is failing to scale, and why the gap between systems and workflows persists. Panellists will share practical experiences across implementation, integration, and adoption—highlighting both progress and constraints.

Rather than focusing on concepts or future potential, the dialogue will centre on current realities: what delivers value today, what breaks in execution, and what organisations need to address to move beyond isolated use cases.

上午 9:30：人工智能在供应链执行中的应用：优势与劣势

人工智能已在供应链的各个环节得到应用——从计划和采购到物流和执行。然而，其应用效果仍参差不齐。虽然一些企业已取得显著成效，但许多企业仍在努力将人工智能能力转化为持续稳定的运营成果。

本次会议以主题演讲中“人工智能能力正在发展，但执行能力却未能跟上”的观点为基础，重点探讨实际应用情况。

讨论将着眼于人工智能在执行方面的应用现状，以及其难以规模化的领域，并分析系统与工作流程之间差距持续存在的原因。与会专家将分享在实施、集成和应用方面的实践经验，重点阐述进展和制约因素。

本次对话将聚焦于当前的实际情况，而非概念或未来潜力：哪些方面能够创造价值，执行过程中存在哪些问题，以及企业需要解决哪些问题才能超越孤立的应用案例。

10.45 AM：From AI to Work: How Supply Chain Roles and Workflows Are Changing

Following the earlier discussion on where AI is working in supply chain execution, this session shifts the focus to what happens within organisations as these technologies are introduced into daily operations.

As AI becomes embedded in planning, procurement, and execution workflows, the nature of work is beginning to change. Tasks that were previously manual are being reduced or automated, while new responsibilities are emerging in validation, exception handling, and workflow design.

However, this transition remains uneven. Many organisations continue to use workflows not designed for AI, and teams are often not equipped to work effectively with these tools.

This panel will examine how work is evolving in practice—what is already changing, what remains unchanged, and where organisations face constraints. The discussion will focus on operational realities, including workflow redesign, role shifts, and capability gaps, rather than on technology features or future projections.

上午 10:45：从人工智能到工作：供应链角色和工作流程正在发生怎样的变化

继前面探讨人工智能在供应链执行中的应用之后，本次会议将重点转向企业在日常运营中引入这些技术后会发生的变化。

随着人工智能融入计划、采购和执行流程，工作的性质正在发生改变。以往需要人工完成的任务正在减少或自动化，同时，验证、异常处理和工作流程设计等领域也涌现出新的职责。

然而，这种转变并非一帆风顺。许多企业仍然沿用并非为人工智能设计的工作流程，团队也往往缺乏有效运用这些工具的能力。

本次研讨会将探讨实际工作是如何演变的——哪些方面已经发生变化，哪些方面依然如故，以及企业在哪些方面面临挑战。讨论将聚焦于运营的实际情况，包括工作流程的重新设计、角色转变和能力差距，而非技术特性或未来展望。

11.30 PM：Live Digital Tools Demonstration

Harnessing Generative AI: Building Intelligent Workflows and Agentic Chatbots

A live demonstration of how generative AI can be embedded into everyday workflows to transform how queries are handled and responses are delivered.

The session will showcase two practical implementations. First, a structured workflow using Google Forms, 

, and Apps Script to capture, process, and generate intelligent responses to user queries. Second, an agentic customer service chatbot that handles the same queries with deeper context, continuity, and adaptive responses.

Together, these demonstrate the shift from rule-based automation to AI-driven systems that can interpret, respond, and operate with minimal human intervention—significantly increasing speed, consistency, and scalability of work output.

驾驭生成式人工智能：构建智能工作流和代理式聊天机器人

本次演示将现场展示如何将生成式人工智能融入日常工作流程，从而革新查询处理和响应方式。

本次演示将展示两个实际应用案例。首先，我们将展示一个使用 Google 表单、Make.com 和 Apps Script 构建的结构化工作流程，用于捕获、处理用户查询并生成智能响应。其次，我们将展示一个能够处理相同查询的智能客服聊天机器人，该机器人能够提供更深入的上下文信息、更连贯的响应以及更灵活的自适应响应。

这些案例共同展现了从基于规则的自动化向人工智能驱动系统的转变，后者能够以最少的人工干预进行解释、响应和操作，从而显著提高工作产出的速度、一致性和可扩展性。
