| Instigators for Supply Chain Network ReconfigurationBack in the day, supply chain network optimization was a once-in-a few years project developing supply chain designs with five to ten-year lifespans. Over time, the instigators, pace, and stakes of change make supply chain network optimization a business-critical on-going process and competitive differentiator. Instigating forces for change in supply chain network configuration fall into x major categories including (1) demographics, consumerism, and retailing; (2) material and product changes; (3) key rates and indices; (4) business growth and decline; (5) supply chain security, safety, and compliance; (6) transportation marketplace; (7) supply chain infrastructure; (8) origin-destination and trade lane upheaval; (9) supply chain operating philosophy | 3 |

| RightChain.ai Data File InputRightChain.ai accepts multi-sheet Excel (.xlsx or .csv) files as input data files for upload. Files may be loaded from local or cloud sources. A data “preview” will appear once the file upload is complete. Please click the “Load” button at the bottom of the “Preview” screen to officially upload the data. | 52 |
| RightChain.ai Data MappingOnce uploaded, RightChain.ai will work to match each column of data to a prescribed data type including “Number”, “Dimension”, “Date”, “Date&Time”, “Boolean”, and “Geographic”. Though mostly accurate, please double check and correct if needed the assignment of each data column to its correct data type. Any corrections may be made via the provided drop-down menu. | 53 |
| RightChain.ai Data Interaction | 54 |
| RightChain™ Nodes Solution MapThe RightChain™ Nodes Solution Map displays (1) the map of origins and/or destinations that comprise the optimization; (2) the optimal network locations based on the user’s selected number of locations; (3) the portion of locations servable within same-day, next day, and two-day service windows; and (4) the solution cost (in this case expressed in total pound-miles). | 55 |
| RightChain™ SOLUTION PAGESRightChain™ SOLUTION PAGES are comprised of eight major sectors. Sector 1 is the Platform Bar allowing users to (a) move between RightChain.ai platforms, (b) displaying their username/icon, and (c) allowing users to “sign out” of the platform. Sector 2 allows users to move between (d) SOLUTION PAGES (all caps) and (e) Data Input Pages. Sector 3 includes the name of the current suite employed by the user (f), allows users to move between applications within the suite (g), and store, load, name, and save files (h). Sector 4 allows the user to define optimization scenarios utilizing Input Filters (h), Optimization Parameters (i), and Plot Controls (j). Sector 5 is the SOLUTION SECTOR. Sector 6 is a menu of solution presentation perspectives. Sector 7 is the solution visualization. Sector 8 provides optimization statistics for the solution at hand. | 56 |
