↑ 0%ArchLynk has launched an AI-powered accelerator for SAP GTS sanctions screening, now available on SAP Store. The tool addresses false positives in sanctioned party list screening, where most matches are partial name or address similarities rather than actual sanctioned entities. The accelerator learns from an organisation's screening history to identify patterns in false positives. It ranks and flags matches that resemble previously cleared hits, allowing compliance teams to focus on genuine risks. In one deployment at a global agribusiness cooperative, the system reduced false positives by 92% within eight weeks. The tool operates within customers' own environments without removing screening data from their systems. It maintains full audit trails and requires human approval for all decisions. ArchLynk, headquartered in San Jose, specialises in SAP supply chain and global trade solutions across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and India.
ArchLynk has launched a Data & AI Practice to help organisations integrate artificial intelligence into supply chain operations. The San Jose-based SAP supply chain and global trade solutions provider will offer advisory, assessment, implementation, and support services. The company introduced the SAP Supply Chain Model Context Protocol, designed for SAP supply chain and global trade solutions including S/4HANA TM, S/4HANA EWM, and SAP GTS. ArchLynk also unveiled the Global Trade and Compliance Assistant+, which uses multiple agents to manage end-to-end global trade processes. The practice aims to address challenges organisations face when moving AI from experimentation to production, particularly around platform integration and SAP workflow compatibility. ArchLynk builds solutions on customers' chosen platforms, including SAP BTP, Joule, and Microsoft Copilot.
ArchLynk launches Data & AI Practice to advance ai-driven supply chains & Global Trade. Focused on AI advisory, assessments, and purpose-built AI agents for SAP-powered supply chain operations SAN JOSE, CA, UNITED STATES, July 13, 2026 / EINPresswire.com / - ArchLynk, a global leader in SAP supply chain and global trade solutions, today announced the launch of its new Data & AI Practice, designed to help organizations embed and orchestrate artificial intelligence across their supply chain processes. The new practice combines Data and AI advisory, assessment, implementation, and maintenance support services that span the full journey from adoption to ROI realization. ArchLynk also announced the launch of its SAP Supply Chain Model Context Protocol (MCP). These MCPs are purpose-built for SAP supply chain and global trade solutions, including S/4HANA TM, S/4HANA EWM, SAP GTS 11 / E4H, SAP IBP, BN4L, and SAP YL. Built on ArchLynk's decades of domain expertise, the MCP helps organizations jump-start AI adoption faster.

Additional purpose-built AI Assistants will follow soon, tailored for key domains including SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP), SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM), SAP Transportation Management (TM), and SAP Business Networks. The launch comes at a critical time for supply chain leaders. Many organizations have begun experimenting with AI, but moving to production remains a challenge due to platform sprawl, unclear governance, and SAP integration complexity. Facing rising volatility and compliance pressure, companies need a practical path to adopt AI that integrates with existing SAP workflows. Organizations want practical ways to leverage AI without disrupting existing systems. ArchLynk's approach augments human decision-making by enabling AI-powered planners while orchestrating data and workflows across supply chain functions. Rather than steering customers toward proprietary platforms, ArchLynk applies its expertise in supply chain, global trade, and AI/ML to identify the right strategy for each organization. Backed by an in-house AI team, ArchLynk builds solutions on the customer's platform of choice, including SAP BTP, Joule, and Microsoft Copilot. "AI in supply chain is not about replacing people - it's about empowering them," said Saroj Tripathi, CTO of ArchLynk. "With our new Data & AI Practice, we are helping organizations orchestrate AI across their supply chain and global trade processes - combining deep SAP expertise with practical innovation to unlock productivity gains, reduce errors, and scale operations intelligently. By building on SAP's AI ecosystem, we ensure our customers can adopt AI with confidence, without compromising flexibility or control." As organizations look to move from experimentation to real impact with AI, ArchLynk's new Data & AI Practice offers a clear and practical starting point. Through ArchLynk's AI assessment, companies can uncover the most impactful AI opportunities, understand the ROI potential, and take the first step toward more connected, intelligent supply chain and global trade operations.
