Google Cloud announced new artificial intelligence features for supply chains today. The tools help companies manage their operations better. Businesses can track inventory more accurately now. They can also predict shipping delays earlier. This uses Google’s AI technology.

The system analyzes data from many sources. It looks at weather, shipping routes, and factory outputs. It spots problems before they get big. Companies can fix issues faster. This saves money and avoids product shortages.
Google Cloud’s AI leader, Hans Thalbauer, explained the need. “Supply chains are complex,” he said. “Old tools struggle with today’s challenges. Our AI gives clearer insights. It helps teams make smarter choices quickly.”
Major companies already use the technology. Unilever tracks ingredients globally with it. Renault Group checks car part deliveries. They report fewer delays and lower costs. Other businesses in retail, manufacturing, and logistics can try it now.

The new AI features are part of Google Cloud’s existing supply chain tools. Customers access them through their current Google Cloud accounts. Pricing depends on usage levels. Google offers support for setting it up.
