Commodities Digitisation 2.0: Automation, Intelligence, Evolution – Optimising Trading and Operations to Thrive in Turbulent Times

While much of the trading organisation is now heavily digitised – operations and logistics are increasingly lagging behind, with many basic functions remaining heavily manual; leading to far higher risk and cost. In addition, valuable data and insights across the business interactions are not being captured and utilized.

That said – the technology tools and processes needed to optimise this part of the business have become more intelligent and consumable allowing organizations to dramatically scale for significant competitive advantage. Even more critical, there are now commodity specific turnkey solutions in the market accelerating adoption and time to value.

This highly practical, important and inspirational webinar in partnership with ClearDox provides a deep dive into a range of organisations' operations and supply chain automation programmes, drawing on specific use cases to illustrate where the wider commodities sector can evolve to in the years ahead.

Subjects discussed include:

• Developing an overall operations automation strategy
• Exploring the ‘low hanging fruit’ of trade confirmations, inventory management, transportation, invoice processing, and reconciliations
• Utilising new streams of data from the back office to provide competitive advantage to the wider organization
