Jean-François Salles explains how Renault Group is digitalising its supply chain and partnering more closely with its suppliers to navitage a supply chain of chaos and reduce emissions
Like other carmakers, Renault Group and the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance are facing disruptions and shortages across production and distribution networks from chip and material constraints, driver and logistics labour constraints, inflation, rising freight rates and geopolitical tensions – just to name a few. The carmaker’s leading supply chain management executive, Jean-François Salles, talks in-depth about how Renault is digitalising systems, using data analytics and AI, partnering more closely with logistics providers and using alternative fuels to achieve sustainability targets.
In a supply chain facing a ‘new never normal’ and ongoing chao, Salles offers clear steps for regaining control and using supply chain management and S&OP to influence long-term decisions across the company.
