The o9 Digital Brain

o9’s AI-enabled digital brain improves forecasting accuracy by using real-time internal and external data to address meaningful demand drivers. In addition, companies can optimize their short- and long-term sales performance through demand sensing and shaping capabilities. Give your planners a digital solution to make decisions about demand stress-free and more efficiently.

Combine marketing and financial plans with sales forecasts and inventory targets, evaluate different demand and supply changes and their financial impact in real time, and orchestrate the entire S&OP process on one system. By creating and analyzing scenarios in real time, efficient decision-making is possible, and companies receive AI-based recommendations about risks and opportunities.

With valantic and o9, suppliers can be integrated into a collaborative process. Through the fast and easy digital onboarding of suppliers and contract manufacturers, we jointly build a multi-stage “Supply Chain Knowledge Graph” model. This provides greater transparency in inventory, demand forecasting, orders, and capacities. System-supported supplier meetings, which can be held directly on the platform, reduce coordination efforts.

Enhanced segmentation, analysis, and scenario planning capabilities improve the success of new product launches. Very complex tasks involving a large number of products can be handled at no additional cost. Reduce coordination efforts between development, marketing, sales, and supply chain by eliminating many different manually created spreadsheets and collaborating on one platform.

With the o9 Supply Chain Control Tower, internal and external demand and supply disruptions can be identified, potential risks and problems understood, and these can be resolved with pre-configured options, taking into account different cost and lead time scenarios. Collaborate across your extended supply chain and use machine learning to learn from decisions made and make future decisions faster.

Supply chain analytics can be used to implement a wide range of applications, such as the analysis and verification of compliance with capacity limits and delivery schedules. The creation of a cost-to-serve analysis and the assessment of customer profitability help companies make the right decisions, thereby significantly improving the bottom line. Inventory is optimized in multi-tier supply chain networks with “multi-echelon” to meet customer needs with minimal inventory.
