Additionally, Gartner predicts that by 2026, over 75% of large companies will adopt AI-enabled tools for their supply chain operations. The increasing complexity of global supply chains and the demand for agility in responding to disruptions make AI and automation indispensable for staying competitive. Microsoft’s suite of AI and automation tools offers accessible, scalable solutions for organizations of all sizes, making now the ideal time to explore their implementation.
