In an era of escalating trade volatility, AI is no longer optional—it’s the key to tariff resilience for retailers and CPG firms. For Asian technology leaders, this Fujitsu whitepaper reveals how AI transforms tariff management from reactive cost absorption to proactive competitive advantage:
- Predictive mitigation: AI models analyse trade policies, supplier data, and historical trends to forecast tariff shifts—enabling pre-emptive supply chain reconfiguration and price optimisation.
- Real-time benchmarking: Track 1,000+ SKUs across competitors using LLMs, ensuring agile pricing and sourcing decisions.
- Unified decision-making: Break silos with AI-driven "tariff engines" (e.g., Palantir’s Ontology) that map cost impacts across procurement, finance, and logistics.
- Emerging tech synergies: Blockchain, IoT, and digital twins enhance transparency and automate compliance, future-proofing operations.
Nathan Cheng, a partner at Fujitsu Wayfinders Consulting stresses: “Clean data and cross-functional collaboration are non-negotiable.” Without them, even advanced AI falters.
For CIOs, the imperative is clear: Leverage AI now to turn trade uncertainty into strategic agility.
