Replenishment and inventory
Setting safety stock and reorder quantities, deciding what to replenish where, and moving excess stock to where it is needed.

Where this applies
EU27, enterprises with 10 or more employees, reference year 2025. 19.95% of enterprises used at least one AI technology, and 6.08% of those applied it to logistics — about 1.21% of all enterprises — the lowest of the seven purposes the dataset publishes; among enterprises with 250 or more employees the logistics share is 14.95%. It measures adoption by enterprises across the economy, not planners' work, and 'logistics' is the survey's broad category.
What this means
The deployments on this page are at the largest companies. Across the economy, AI in logistics is still rare — a reminder that the planner's job is changing fast in some firms and hardly at all in most.
What it does not yet show
An enterprise-level adoption survey for the EU; it does not measure planning tasks or jobs.
What you can check
Query Eurostat dataset isoc_eb_ai for EU27, 2025, enterprises with 10 or more employees, and read the logistics purpose (E_AI_PLOG): 6.08.
Does it change the assessment?
No. The impact index is never moved by a single event. Nor did this record change a layer: all 2 linked judgements above already rested on earlier evidence. This one adds to them.
