Mar 26, 2020 - Mar 31, 2023
Description:
The goal is to investigate intelligent management of supply chain digital twinning with application to the Global Agri-Food Value Chain (GAVC) that improves food quality and safety. GAVCs often span across the globe and involves various organizations that vary in production approaches and standards with regulatory actors and government regimes that vary in competence and transparency. The global distribution of agri-food products is creating longer and more complex supply chains that obscure traditional methods of oversight, coordination and collaboration.In recent years, there is an increased interest in the digitalisation and digital transformation of production processes and supply chains resulting from the acceleration of technological development such as the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0). In this project, the focus on artificial intelligence solutions to integrate value chains across firms and manage the infusion of data to address many challenges such as complexity, uncertainty, risk, visibility, collaboration, cost, and sustainability.
