Complexica Pty Ltd, a leading provider of Artificial Intelligence (AI) software for supply & demand optimisation, announced today that Pernod Ricard Winemakers has achieved its first go-live with Complexica’s Decision Cloud® software platform in Marlborough, New Zealand in what is Pernod Ricard Winemakers’ largest global technology project. The deployment will support the company to digitalise processes, as well as optimise planning and scheduling activities. Pernod Ricard Winemakers plans further go-lives in Australia for finished goods planning and production scheduling, followed by Australian and Church Road winery operations, which forms part of a wider program of activity to enable the business to utilize technology to work faster, smarter and safer.

Complexica Pty Ltd, a leading provider of Artificial Intelligence software for optimising sales, marketing, and supply chain decisions, announced today that it has signed a contract with Pernod Ricard Winemakers for the AI Foundations project, which will deliver advanced Artificial Intelligence and machine learning capabilities to various supply chain and production functions within Pernod Ricard Winemakers. The project is a significant investment, establishing a long-term partnership which will transition Pernod Ricard Winemakers’ operation away from paper, whiteboard, and spreadsheet-based systems, towards Complexica’s cloud-based applications for planning, scheduling, and push/pull optimisation.

“After conducting an evaluation and assessment process earlier this year, we have selected Complexica as our vendor of choice for our AI Foundations project, which will seek to optimise our business performance, by enhancing decision making and improving our ways of working, while making work safer for our employees,” said Brett McKinnon, Global Operations Director at Pernod Ricard Winemakers. “We wanted to partner with an organisation that could provide global thought leadership on applied Artificial Intelligence – particularly in areas such as global optimisation and multi-objective optimisation – and had a deep appreciation of winemaking production processes, and the inherent complexities that exist within supply chains. We found that partner in Complexica and look forward to working together in the years ahead.”
