IT DEMO DAYS

VENUE: VAN DER VALK HOTEL SCHIPHOL AMSTERDAM AIRPORT

Time: 12.00 pm to 5.30 pm

Make better supply chain decisions, faster!

Explore the technologies behind smarter supply chain decisions.

Today's supply chains face growing complexity, volatility, and customer expectations. Whether you are looking to improve planning, increase transport visibility or simulate future scenarios, selecting the right technology has become a strategic business decision.

Supply Chain Media's Demo Days help supply chain leaders explore and compare leading solutions in S&OP, Transport Control Tower and Digital Supply Chain Twin technology. In just one afternoon, you will see live demonstrations from selected software providers and gain a practical understanding of how these technologies help companies improve decision-making, increase resilience, and strengthen operational performance.

Rather than spending months researching vendors, attending individual demos, and navigating lengthy sales cycles, the Demo Days allow you to compare multiple solutions side by side in a structured and highly efficient format.

Digital Twin Demo Day brings together supply chain leaders for an afternoon dedicated to one of the most transformative technologies of today: digital twins. As supply chains become increasingly volatile and interconnected, businesses are under growing pressure to make faster and better-informed decisions. Digital twins provide a powerful way to model, simulate and optimise supply chain operations, enabling organisations to anticipate disruptions, evaluate strategic scenarios and improve performance before decisions are implemented in the real world.

Model tomorrow. Decide today.

Your guide to the technology landscape

Choosing supply chain software has never been more challenging. New categories emerge every year, vendors continue to expand their capabilities, and many solutions appear similar at first glance.
Whether you are exploring S&OP, Transport Control Tower, Digital Twin or other supply chain technologies, the real challenge is understanding which type of solution best matches your business objectives, operational challenges, and level of maturity.

SCM IT Vendor Map
The SCM IT Vendor Map helps supply chain professionals navigate the technology landscape with greater confidence. Instead of starting with vendor claims and feature lists, the map provides a structured overview of software categories, market positioning, and solution capabilities.
Use it to identify relevant software categories, benchmark providers, and create a focused shortlist before entering detailed vendor discussions.

Because better technology decisions start with understanding the landscape.
