The agentic age is here: let's make AI work for you
Global supply chains are at a turning point. Geopolitical shifts, sustainability demands, and growing complexity are pushing traditional planning to its limits. The future belongs to faster, smarter decisions powered by human-AI synergy.
The shift to the agentic age is real and happening now. Decision-centric planning is transforming supply chains, moving from reactive responses to continuous, autonomous decision-making. This means embedding intelligence into every step so leaders can adapt quickly, act with confidence, and keep business value at the heart of every decision.
Analysts agree. Gartner predicts that by 2030, 50% of cross-functional supply chain management (SCM) solutions will use intelligent agents to autonomously execute decisions in the ecosystem.
UnisonIQ: the AI orchestration framework
The agentic age demands a bold leap. UnisonIQ makes that leap possible by turning AI potential into real results for supply chains.
We built UnisonIQ as an AI orchestrator that unites AI agents, assistants, and engines into one powerful framework. Embedded within the Unison Planning™ platform, UnisonIQ moves beyond reactive responses to enable truly proactive, autonomous decision-making.
Backed by 40 years of industry expertise, OMP combines advanced AI-powered scenario modeling with proven supply chain know-how. This gives companies a road map from AI-assisted operations to agentic teamwork and ultimately to fully autonomous planning.
3 pillars of always-on decision intelligence
- Always-on agents: Decision-centric, event-driven agents that run continuously, sensing change and turning critical decisions into action. Key personas include the supply planning, modeling, demand planning, and data management agents.
- Unison Companion: A generative AI assistant and orchestrator that uses natural language to accelerate onboarding, improve adoption, and provide role-based support.
- AI engines: A powerful mix of machine learning, optimization, and explainable AI (XAI) to ensure every decision is transparent, trusted, and sustainable.

Empowering fusion teams for the agentic age
Digital transformation works best when people, processes, and systems come together. Research by Zero100 shows that fusion teams — cross-functional groups combining supply chain, IT, and data science expertise — consistently outperform traditional structures.
Unison Planning™ supports these teams with explainable AI, scenario modeling, and generative tools, freeing planners from manual tasks and helping them focus on shaping strategic decisions that deliver real business outcomes.
