2025 Ascend Supply Chain Hackathon
Theme: Building measurable, resilient, and inclusive supply chains
Problem: Corporations need measurable supply-chain goals that go beyond "dollars spent" and support long-term resilience and equitable supplier participation.
Approach: Our team designed a robust, resilient framework, a tiered supplier verification model, ESG-aligned growth phases, tier-specific KPIs, and AI-powered verification and traceability.
Solution: A unified KPI system that improves supply-chain strength while enabling scalable development for underrepresented suppliers, supported by AI-driven risk monitoring and a practical pilot program.
