Due to series of external events in last year - like the Covid-19 pandemic, climate-related disasters, and the blockage in the Suez Canal -- have underscored the vulnerability of global supply chains. As companies race to improve their resiliency, Google is pitching better supply chain visibility. Google Cloud is also launching the Supply Chain Pulse module to provide supply chain managers with real-time dashboards, advanced analytics, alerts, and collaboration in Google Workspace.
The Supply Chain Pulse module, meanwhile, offers different performance dashboards to analyze key operational metrics. Users can set mobile alerts that trigger when key metrics reach user-defined thresholds. They can also build shared workflows for quick collaboration in Google Workspace to resolve issues. The service can also offer AI-driven recommendations in response to events.
