Food Supply Chain
Optimisation using
Machine Learning

We are a community of specialists who are rapidly deploying solutions to improve the flow of food.

Our volunteers are mobilising their technical skills to help address food supply chain challenges

Optimisation Models Can Increase Capacity and Speed by 20-40%

Machine Learning Models Improve The Flow of Money, Goods & Information

Our Community Mission:

 

Help food security stakeholders improve the flow of food using machine learning

Our Strategy:


Remain hyper-focused on rapidly building, implementing, and scaling operational optimisation algorithms within 5-10 days

We Are Using Tech To Move Food Faster and Smarter

Our Digital War Room

Covid-19 has created a surge in demand. Capacity constraints are limiting fulfillment. Hiring, training and new capex investments have significant time lags.

The only way to increase capacity immediately is to optimise existing operations. Applied mathematical modelling will answer critical decision making questions to maximise capacity and improve the efficiency with which move food moves through the value chain.

Rapid Deployment of Vital Solutions

 

Logistics Operations

3 optimisation algorithms deployed in under 100 hours. From testing to scale up in under 5 days. 

Labour Optimisation

Eliminate non-value added activities and maximise operational personnel efficiency 

Custom Machine Learning Solution

Eliminate non value added activities, automate processes and receive optimal decision support. Delivery in under 10 days.

Predictive Modelling & Strategic Planning

Ensuring resilient operations by dynamically planning labour for each scenario

Lockdown Requires Applied Mathematics 

In the current lockdown climate, the only way to increase capacity immediately is through optimising existing operations. Our models maximise resource efficiency and minimise waste.

Our Volunteer Specialists Are Contributing Essential Skills 

Specialists Include:

  • Applied Mathematics Researchers 
  • PhD Graduates
  • Data Scientists 
  • Agrifood Supply Chain Specialist 
  • Operations Consultant

Due to limited resources:

We will be prioritising critical food security stakeholders who are managing operations with over 1000 personnel or $50m in turnover
