Complexica Pty Ltd, a leading provider of Artificial Intelligence (AI) software for supply & demand optimisation, announced today that Pernod Ricard Winemakers has achieved additional go-lives with Complexica’s Decision Cloud® software platform within its New Zealand and Australian wineries, including its largest winery at Rowland Flat in the Barossa. The company also announced that it had signed a contract with the global winemaker for phase 2 of the supply chain optimization project.
Whereas Phase 1 of the project focused on the digitalisation of business processes and optimization of planning and scheduling activities within winery, finished goods, and bottling operations, Phase 2 will focus on the optimization of vintage-related activities in terms of harvesting and transporting grapes into wineries for intake and crushing. The intent of the overall project – which is Pernod Ricard Winemakers’ largest global technology project – is to transition the business away from paper, whiteboard, and spreadsheet-based systems, towards Complexica’s cloud-based applications for planning, scheduling, and push/pull optimisation.
