Brains Meet Brains: When LLMs Sit on Top of Supply Chain Optimizers
TL;DR Pair a classic mixed‑integer inventory redistribution model with an LLM-driven context layer and you get explainable optimization: the math still finds near‑optimal transfers, while the LLM translates them into role‑aware narratives, KPIs, and visuals. The result is faster buy‑in, fewer “why this plan?” debates, and tighter execution. Why this paper matters for operators Most planners don’t read constraint matrices. They read stockout risks, truck rolls, and WOS. The study demonstrates a working system where: ...
