Library review — the flag index.

Every item on the /library shelf — white papers and blog posts — with its outstanding review flags. Under the publish-then-review motion the QA itself happens on the live pages (multi-device); tweaks land same-day. 12 of 15 items carry open flags. Blog byline throughout: Betsy Romeri. Blog provenance: 30 legacy WP posts curated to 8 (audit archive in-repo at docs/archive/blog-migration/).

Structural decision — with marketing (Stephen, 2026-07-08): the shelf carries three decision-intelligence items — the new Decision intelligence article and the two papers migrated from its sources' legacy ebook siblings (AI Decision Intelligence… — the featured card — and From Buzzword…). During the QA pass, judge them side by side on the shelf and call it: coexist, or retire/merge a surface.

Why SCOR Still Matters in the Agentic Era

AI agents can read anything — so why would a process framework born in 1996 matter more now, not less? Because agents raise the price of ambiguity. A founder's argument for SCOR DS as the shared language between humans, systems, and the agents that now sit between them.

Predictive Supply Chain Intelligence is the New Competitive Advantage

Strategic value creation has entered a new operating reality. Traditional levers — financial engineering, cost elimination, incremental operational improvement — are no longer enough. Predictive supply chain intelligence is where durable advantage now comes from.

Agentic AI Needs a Governance Layer, Not Better Labels

The debate over what qualifies as an "agent" misses the point. The real challenge isn't terminology — it's deciding which actions may be automated, who owns the outcome, what evidence is required, and when human authority must intervene. The case for a governance layer.

AI Decision Intelligence for Modern Supply Chain Operations

Most midmarket manufacturers and distributors are sitting on more data than ever — yet the distance between what they can see and what they can act on is where margin leaks out. A look at how decision intelligence closes that gap.

From Buzzword to Business-Critical Capability

Make better decisions, consistently, at scale. Most organizations sit on mountains of data, yet only a small fraction of it actually informs the decisions that drive performance. How decision intelligence turns data into a repeatable capability.

Hybrid Agentic AI: The Future of AI-Activation

Maximize impact, minimize change. If you're dealing with excess inventory, slow order-to-cash cycles, and demand-planning guesswork, hybrid agentic AI offers a smarter path — one that layers over the systems you already run.

Decision intelligence for supply chains: an operating capability, not a project

Decision intelligence is how supply chains turn data into consistently good decisions — a continuous lifecycle of designing, executing, and improving decisions, run as a performance program with KPIs and owners, not a one-off modeling exercise.

Stop Watching Your Supply Chain. Start Running It: The Agentic AI Shift

Most companies are paying for AI that tells them what's wrong; very few have AI that actually fixes it. The shift from AI as a dashboard to AI as an operator — Agentic AI — is what separates supply chain leaders from the rest.
