Closing the Decision Gap in Volatile Supply Chains - with & Prasad Mahajan of Optilogic and Dr. Gopalendu Pal of Target

Supply chains are moving from predictable planning cycles to a reality where volatility demands continuous redesign and faster decision‑making. In this episode, Dr. Gopalendu Pal, Director of Operations at Target, and Prasad Mahajan, Senior Director of Customer Engagement at Optilogic, examine how leaders can adapt by tightening the gap between sensing disruption and adjusting operations, as Emerj's Daniel Faggella guides the discussion toward the implications for enterprise decision speed. They outline the practical shifts required — reassessing outdated constraints, strengthening data foundations, and using scenario analysis and human‑guided AI to evaluate operational options with greater accuracy and responsiveness.
