Brief of February 2026

Hello,

This edition is dedicated to AI adoption in the real economy: across B2B distribution, manufacturing, and industry.

Why is AI essential in B2B sales? 

High staff turnover  

New sales reps who understand products, compatibilities, and alternatives are hard to find and even harder to retain.

The discount culture 

When a client hesitates, the default reaction is often “let’s give 5% off.”
This reflex quietly erodes margins and profitability.

ERPs are full of valuable data but they don’t know how to sell

Sales is an active process, not just administration.

What Does a Time-Series Forecasting Model Actually Do? 

In distribution, knowing when stock will run out across thousands of products is one of the most valuable applications of AI.

Time-series forecasting can also support the automation of supplier replenishment orders. 

You can implement these capabilities using technologies such as Google Cloud and Vertex AI.

Why AI Can’t Deliver Results When Your Data Looks Like This:

AI cannot deliver reliable results if unstructured address data like “Bd. Timișoara 12” isn’t correctly mapped to standardized fields such as: {"street": "Timișoara", "street_type": "boulevard", "number": 12}

The same product may have its dimensions recorded as “100 mm”, “10 cm” or “0.1 m”.
It may be listed as “green,” misspelled as “gren,” entered as “vert” (from imports), or translated inconsistently.
