PLASS: Platform for Analytical Supply Chain Management Services

The goal of the PLASS project is the development of a prototypical B2B platform for AI-based decision support for supply chain management. The focus is on the automatic recognition of decision-relevant information and the extraction of structured knowledge from global and multilingual text sources. These sources provide a large database for SCM information, especially for the early recognition of critical events and risks, but also of opportunities — e.g. through new technologies, suppliers, and supply chains. PLASS enables SMEs and large enterprises to continuously monitor their suppliers and supply chains, and supports supply chain managers in risk assessment and decision-making.
