Enhanced Resilience and Reliability: The cloud-based integration system will ensure more robust, scalable, and secure data flows, reducing downtime and minimizing disruptions in day-to-day operations. AI-Driven Efficiency: By leveraging AI to automate integration processes, DS Smith will achieve greater operational efficiency, reducing maintenance overhead and enabling teams to focus on strategic business initiatives. Seamless Customer and Vendor Connectivity: The new API-first architecture will enhance DS Smith's ability to integrate with external partners, significantly reducing onboarding time for new customers and vendors.
