Supply Chain Optimization with SAP Business AI
Business AI Associate · AI / ML · August 2026
A ProoV case study · educational project, not employment
Built a credible supply-chain rescue plan for a fictional SAP manufacturer by isolating the true bottleneck, quantifying the production risk, and designing a Joule-style copilot that reads live supplier and inventory signals to recommend the next best action. The work is grounded in human approval guardrails, a defensible savings estimate, and a board-ready pilot ask with a clear success metric.

What stood out6
- Correctly rejected the loud port-delay decoy and centered the single-sourced component with ~2 weeks of cover
- Defined a practical copilot that surfaces the single best next action and drafts a PO or reroute for approval
- Applied the low-value, reversible, high-confidence rule correctly, including escalating the cheap-but-irreversible trap
- Made the board ask specific and bounded: a 2-person, 60-day pilot with success defined as detection-to-mitigation under 1 day
- Leakage-Free Problem Diagnosis
- Human-in-the-Loop Copilot Design
