The China Mail - OMP Unveils Decision-Centric Planning to Accelerate Supply Chain Decision Velocity

From reactive to proactive supply chain planning

Traditional planning cycles are often too slow to keep pace with today's volatility. Unison Decision-Centric Planning replaces static, process-driven planning with a dynamic, decision-first approach that continuously senses change, identifies relevant scenarios, and quantifies business impact. By aligning AI-driven intelligence with human judgment, organizations move from reactive firefighting to proactive value optimization.

"With Unison Decision-Centric Planning, we help customers move beyond reactive firefighting," said Tom Wouters, Chief Product Officer at OMP.

"By combining human expertise with advanced AI and scenario modeling, we enable confident, proactive decisions that drive agility, resilience, and measurable business impact."

Human-AI synergy for smarter, faster decisions

Unison Decision-Centric Planning leverages UnisonIQ to orchestrate AI agents, generative AI assistants, and advanced optimization engines. Routine manual tasks are automated, freeing planners to focus on cross-functional collaboration and decision-making. Explainable AI ensures transparency and trust, while autonomous agents continuously monitor supply chain signals and act in real time.
