There are many uncertainties in value networks: shorter product life cycles, supplier failures and disruptions such as COVID-19 are just some of the reasons for this. Head of Centre Patrick Brandtner and his team at the new Josef Ressel Centre, supported by commercial partners Internorm International GmbH, Julius Blum GmbH and Vaillant Group Austria GmbH, are therefore conducting basic research to reduce the complexity of decision-making in supply chain management: with the help of the possibilities of data-based, predictive analytics of value networks, it is worked on a decision support system to warn of impending, uncertain events for which precautions can then be taken!
