In an insightful keynote at Supply Chain Europe 2024, Sandesh Kurkal, Neo Tangent’s Global Strategy, Solution, and Transformation Leader, outlined a transformative vision for supply chains powered by middle-office strategies and AI integration. The presentation, titled "Unchaining Supply Chain through Middle-Office Transformation and AI," drew attention to the critical shifts impacting the supply chain sector today and offered insight into how Neo Tangent is reimagining supply chain processes to adapt to these disruptions.

Neo Tangent’s middle office strategy serves as a critical differentiator. By consolidating supply chain processes into a centralized, data-driven model, Neo Tangent effectively supports Chief Supply Chain Officers, CFOs, and other decision-makers in navigating complex supply chain landscapes. This integration enables organizations to align supply chain functions directly with cost-of-goods-sold (COGS) considerations, a key metric that can account for up to 60% of total revenue.

Beyond conventional supply chain functions, Neo Tangent’s focus on AI-driven transformation allows us to create adaptable and predictive models that support cost optimization, cost savings, and cost avoidance initiatives. This approach enhances the strategic role of supply chain management within organizations, transforming it from an operational concern into a boardroom-level imperative.

Neo Tangent also prioritizes sustainable practices, driven by an extensive partner ecosystem embedded within the Li & Fung network. With dedicated teams focused on sustainability and responsible sourcing, we ensure that our clients benefit from a fully integrated approach that supports sustainable growth without compromising on efficiency or value.

Our commitment to adding measurable value is evident in our partnership approach. Rather than relying on traditional FTE or transactional models, we adopt a holistic value-driven model that aligns with our clients' strategic objectives. Each engagement is designed to maximize the long-term value generated, ensuring that our clients receive not only operational support but a true partnership in growth.
