The platform as the core of the digital transformation

The o9 Digital Brain

Triad valantic Partner site o9, AI Support in End-to-End Supply Chain Planning

Optimize planning and decision-making

Isolated processes and IT systems, lack of end-to-end transparency, no incorporation of external data – all of this results in slow and erroneous decisions and ultimately in a significant loss of value. With the o9 Digital Brain, the platform that is at the heart of digital transformation, you can anticipate market changes in timely fashion, more accurately forecast demand by incorporating external data, and assess integrated business, supply chain, and financial plans.

What is the o9 Digital Brain?

From data to knowledge to intelligent decisions. Today, companies are being challenged to make quick and intelligent decisions based on a variety of information. The o9 Digital Brain enables a full digital representation of your enterprise with a patented graph-based technology, the Enterprise Knowledge Graph (EKG).

The o9 Digital Brain: A full digital representation of your enterprise

With the o9 Digital Brain, all relevant internal and external data sources can be combined on one platform in real time. Based on this, you can apply advanced AI, analytics, and algorithms that enable you to forecast demand more intelligently, align demand and supply matches with scenarios based on goals such as maximizing service levels or minimizing costs, and identify opportunities and risks at an early stage. By creating an end-to-end decision-making platform that combines market, demand, and supply chain knowledge, you can make decisions more efficiently and sustainably.
