Webinar: Redefining the Role of Forecasting: How Digital Twins and DDMRP Are Reshaping Supply Chain Management

This special edition of the Simio Solution Series brings together experts from 4Sight, the Demand Driven Institute, and Simio to reveal how combining Digital Twin simulation with the Demand Driven MRP (DDMRP methodology) is creating agile, resilient supply chains in volatile markets like South Africa.

In today’s unpredictable business environment, traditional supply chain planning often falls short. Companies implementing DDMRP are seeing dramatic improvements—like 95% reductions in past-due orders and 55% increases in supplier performance—but many organisations hesitate due to perceived implementation risks.

This webinar bridges that gap by showcasing how Digital Twin technology creates a virtual testing ground for DDMRP implementation. 4Sight will open with real-world examples of supply chain challenges in South Africa, followed by Chad Smith of the Demand Driven Institute explaining the fundamentals and proven benefits of DDMRP. Christine Watson will then demonstrate how Simio’s Digital Twin technology allows companies to design, test, and optimize their DDMRP configuration and processes before real-world deployment.

What you’ll take away:

• A clear understanding of DDMRP’s approach to managing supply chain variability
• How Digital Twin simulation minimises implementation risk
• Practical steps for evaluating DDMRP in your organisation
• Access to case studies, white papers, and implementation resources

This session is designed for supply chain professionals seeking practical solutions to persistent challenges like inventory optimisation, service level improvement, and demand volatility. No prior knowledge of DDMRP is required—just bring your supply chain challenges and an open mind.
