Connected Autonomous Planning
A global offering

Capgemini’s Connected Autonomous Planning
Capgemini’s Connected Autonomous Planning is a holistic approach to
addressing some of the most complex challenges that large CP
organizations face today. From the interpretation and integration of
demand data and consumer insights to core digital operations,
Capgemini will help accelerate your performance to ensure the right
products to the right location … at the right time and cost.
Bringing together our expertise across the CP industry in supply chain
strategy, operating models, continuous touchless planning, and insights
and analytics, we partner with our clients to not only understand their
barriers but also to develop the planning solutions – from demand right
through to fulfillment – to adapt and to thrive in this increasingly
complex world.

As a CP organization, supply chain is the
lifeblood of your operations. Modern
supply chains represent a delicate balance
of disparate processes and organizational
silos that can ultimately make or break
your business. Transforming your digital
operations and supply chain is a complex
undertaking and, without the right
expertise and guidance, transformation
can disrupt your business negatively
instead of enhancing it.
“By 2023, at least 50% of large global
companies will be using AI, advanced analytics,
and IoT in supply chain operations.”
(Source: Predicts 2019 for Supply Chain Operations)
With technology playing a greater role in
the personal lives of consumers and their
shopping habits, expectations have
changed dramatically and have come to
challenge the concept of what it takes to
be a successful brand. Today, consumers:
• Want to discover products, services,
and niche brands in ways you can’t
control – social media, influencers, DTC
• Expect products to be fulfilled on their
terms and at their convenience –
subscription, marketplaces, big box vs.
local retailers, social networks
• Want transparency around ingredients
and sourcing and alignment with their
individual ethos
• Are changing where and how they
engage with your brand and the brands
of your competitors at an increasingly
fast rate – image recognition, chat,
messaging apps, voice.
How do you continue to grow profitably
while meeting these shifting customer
expectation?
Clearly a new paradigm is at play.
