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.

This podcast explains how best to navigate the hype often associated with AI versus the reality of its use in decision support systems. While AI is often already in use within businesses, Complexica CEO Matt Michalewicz explains the importance of identifying a business problem to solve rather than implementing AI simply for AI’s sake. Artificial Intelligence can add real benefits through supply & demand optimisation, reaching into sales, marketing, supply chain and production systems and processes.

Flinders Ports has an ambition - to do as little work as humanly possible moving containers back and forth as they make their way through South Australia’s major logistics hub. So it’s perhaps poetic that the Adelaide company has brought artificial intelligence to bear, to crunch the numbers on the Tetris-like task of getting hundreds of thousands of containers per year on and off ships, and on their way to the end user. Flinders has been working with Adelaide AI company Complexica for the past 18 months on optimising container movements through the Adelaide Container Terminal. The process has been largely manual to date, with the decisions about where containers would go in the yard being been left up to humans.

Helping some of the biggest brands across Australia and the globe make better decisions is a simple way to explain what artificial intelligence firm Complexica does, but it also vastly undersells them. It’s by no accident that the company has been able to bring on brands like Pfizer, Pernod Ricard and Metcash over the past seven years, with products such as Decision Cloud and Larry, the Digital Analyst helping Complexica’s customers navigate decision-making processes well beyond the capacity of human managers.

Complexica's CEO, Matt Michalewicz, joins Peter Switzer on the Learning from Legends podcast to discuss the impact of AI on business, stocks, and our lives.
