Supply chain management using problem and remediation propagation modeling

Abstract

A method for problem remediation in supply chain management is provided in the illustrative embodiments. A determination is made whether a data in a data stream of a supply chain process is indicative of a problem in the supply chain. Responsive to determining that the data is indicative of the problem, a confidence level is assigned to a diagnosis of the problem. Using a historical data repository, a symptom of the problem is identified. The symptom identifies a point in the data stream where the problem is manifested. Using the historical database, a remedy for the problem is identified. The remedy is recorded in the historical data repository with the problem and the symptom at a previous time. The previous time is before receiving the data stream. The remedy is applied to the supply chain.
