Revolutionizing Supply Chains: How Quant Fusion's AI is Crushing the Combinatorial Explosion Problem

Updated: Jun 15, 2023

While Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been around since the 1970s, recent advancements in technology and computing power have enabled its widespread adoption and integration into many aspects of daily life, leading to its mainstream popularity. The main drivers of the recent surge in AI adoption is the increased availability and affordability of data storage and processing capabilities, advances in machine learning algorithms and neural networks, and proliferation of smart devices and the Internet of Things (IoT) have allowed AI systems to become more sophisticated and accurate in their predictions and recommendations. The transformational impact of AI on organizational operations is evident, and it continues to revolutionize the supply chain ecosystem. The complex network of supply chain options can be overwhelming, with countless shipments across multiple modes being transported worldwide, resulting in large amounts of data to manage. Some companies offer solutions to help organizations streamline logistics data. Others provide solutions for problems that occur during the freight's journey. However, the solution offered by Quant Fusion solves for the Combinatorial Explosion problem which is a common challenge faced by shippers with complex supply chains. It refers to the explosive increase in the number of possible combinations of products and customers that a shipper must consider when fulfilling orders. As the number of products and customers increases, the number of possible combinations also increases exponentially, making it impractical to consider each combination manually. The Combinatorial Explosion problem can be solved using Quant Fusion's AI-based algorithms that can quickly analyze a large number of variables and provide optimal solutions for supply chain operations. For example, our solution output is a revenue-generating decision tool that can consider over 250 million possible fulfillment options in seconds which significantly improves supply chain productivity and allows businesses to optimize their logistics network -- no more managing multiple spreadsheets and multiple browsers that are associated with logistics tasks.


The use of AI capabilities in the supply chain ecosystem can transform organizations, providing a competitive edge in the market. With AI, companies can automate and optimize their supply chain operations, ensuring that their products are delivered on time, with the right quantity and quality. The benefits of AI in supply chain operations are clear -- it saves time, increases revenue and ultimately leads to happier customers. Quant Fusion's AI solution offers a simple and effective way to manage the complexities of supply chains, drive revenue and improve productivity. Now is the time for businesses to take advantage of AI capabilities to optimize their supply chain operations and transform their organizations.
