From Critical Minerals to the Strait of Hormuz: Practical Ways for EMS to Use AI to Build a More Resilient Supply Chain

Global disruptions are no longer isolated events. From intensifying competition for critical minerals to geopolitical flashpoints such as the Strait of Hormuz, electronics manufacturers face growing uncertainty that can rapidly impact material availability, costs, and production schedules. 

Building supply chain resilience now requires more than reacting to disruption. 

Join CalcuQuote and Banyan.eco for a practical discussion on how EMS leaders can use AI to automate materials compliance, identify risks during quoting process, and make better supply chain decisions before shortages affect production and delivery.

Who should attend?


EMS Executives and COOs

Understand where AI can deliver measurable value across commercial and supply chain operations, without turning every initiative into a three-year transformation project. 

Supply Chain and Purchasing Leaders

Learn how to identify material risks earlier, assess BOM exposure, and make better sourcing decisions before availability or pricing changes affect production. 

Compliance and Sustainability Leaders

Explore how AI-powered materials intelligence can improve visibility into regulatory, environmental, and geopolitical risks across complex electronics supply chains. 

Quoting and Estimating Leaders

Discover how supply chain risk intelligence can become part of the quoting process, helping your team build more accurate, informed, and defensible quotes. 

What you will learn


Build resilience before the next disruption

See how AI can help your team identify exposure to critical minerals, constrained components, geopolitical regions, compliance requirements, and supplier dependencies earlier in the decision process. 

Connect Quoting, Supply Chain, and Compliance Decisions

Resilience cannot sit within one department. Discover how connected data and AI can help commercial, supply chain, purchasing, compliance, and executive teams make decisions from the same intelligence, reducing delays and conflicting assumptions.

Evaluate Alternatives Earlier

Learn how AI can support faster evaluation of alternative parts, suppliers, and sourcing strategies when market conditions change. The goal is not to replace expert judgement. It is to give your experts better information, sooner.

Turn AI into a Practical Business Advantage

The speakers will discuss where AI can create meaningful value for EMS companies today, where human expertise remains essential, and how leaders can begin building a more resilient and intelligence-led supply chain.
