In this episode of The Performance Driven Warehouse, host Dan Keto speaks with Dr. Muddassir Ahmed, globally recognized supply chain digitalization expert and founder of SCM Dojo, about why most warehouse AI initiatives fail before they start.
Instead of chasing automation hype, they focus on the foundational work required to make AI deliver real ROI: standardized processes, unified data models, and structured system design. The conversation breaks down how fragmented WMS taxonomies, poor data architecture, and overreliance on LLMs create costly inefficiencies.
For operators under pressure to adopt AI, this episode offers a practical lens on where to invest first, and how to turn data complexity into a measurable operational advantage.
