The research process for this study included systematic gathering, recording, and analysis of data about customers and companies operating in the AI in supply chain market. This process involved the extensive use of secondary sources, directories, and databases (Factiva, Oanda, and OneSource) for identifying and collecting valuable information for the comprehensive, technical, market-oriented, and commercial study of the AI in supply chain market. In-depth interviews were conducted with primary respondents, including experts from core and related industries and preferred manufacturers, to obtain and verify critical qualitative and quantitative information as well as to assess growth prospects. Key players in the AI in supply chain market were identified through secondary research, and their market rankings were determined through primary and secondary research. This research included studying annual reports of top players and interviewing key industry experts such as CEOs, directors, and marketing executives.
Secondary Research
In the secondary research process, various sources were used to identify and collect information important for this study. These include annual reports, press releases & investor presentations of companies, white papers, technology journals, certified publications, articles by recognized authors, directories, and databases.
Secondary research was mainly used to obtain key information about the industry's value chain, the total pool of market players, the classification of the market according to industry trends to the bottom-most level, regional markets, and key developments from the market and technology-oriented perspectives.
Primary Research
Primary research was also conducted to identify the segmentation types, key players, competitive landscape, and key market dynamics, such as drivers, restraints, opportunities, challenges, and industry trends, along with key strategies adopted by players operating in the AI in supply chain market. Extensive qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed on the complete market engineering process to list key information and insights throughout the report.
Extensive primary research has been conducted after acquiring knowledge about the AI in supply chain market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews have been conducted with experts from both demand (end-use industry, and region) and supply side (offering, deployment, organization size, and application) across four major geographic regions: North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and RoW. Approximately 80% and 20% of the primary interviews were conducted from the supply and demand side, respectively. These primary data have been collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews.
Note: The three tiers of the companies have been defined based on their total/segmental revenue as of
2023: Tier 1 = >USD 1 billion, Tier 2 = USD 1 billion–USD 500 million, and Tier 3 = < USD 500 million. ‘Others’
include sales, marketing, and product managers.
