Can a blockchain assurance tool build trust in residential construction?

The KPMG team has also developed a digital tool for assessing supply chain resilience. KPMG Supply Chain Predictor provides end-to-end, real-time oversight of a company’s entire supply chain, while using predictive analytics and AI to identify potential disruptions before they occur.

Masters explains: “What this tool does is map out your supply chain across developments and monitor public information and other sorts of insights to be able to identify in real-time the vulnerabilities in your supply chain, so you can plan for risk and potentially look for alternative suppliers.”

KPMG says the difference between its system with other supply chain risk systems is that it is based on predictive and real-time data – not historical data.

“It’s fully deployed across multiple sectors in a number of countries. It is also being piloted in the UK,” Masters adds.
