Dallas/Amsterdam, September 1st, 2021 – Pirelli and o9 Solutions will partner for the digital transformation of Pirelli’s Integrated Business Planning. o9, the premier AI-powered platform, is already being used by the premium tire company for the long term strategic planning and soon will be live also for the Global Demand Planning and Supply Planning of the company.
By leveraging o9’s ‘Digital Brain’ platform, Pirelli is able to process and connect data in a single platform for supply chain optimization and integrated business decisions, breaking through silos within the company. Together with o9, Pirelli is now able to create a long-range demand plan, incorporating leading indicators of demand and key market trends. Using o9’s Enterprise Knowledge Graph technology, Pirelli can run different scenarios and evaluate them based on different indicators for all categories, channels, and countries across all time horizons within an interconnected platform, instead of disparate Excel spreadsheets.
Pier Paolo Tamma, Chief Digital Officer at Pirelli said: “Thanks to o9, Pirelli is now able to keep our Strategic Plan alive, thanks to the real time visibility on the impact that each change in the supply chain, production capacity and market demand has on the expected plan evolution. Additionally, thanks to o9 AI capabilities, Pirelli will be able to preempt issues and bottlenecks and assess possible alternative resolution scenarios. ”
“We are committed to helping Pirelli to reach their ambitious strategic goals with our AI-powered integrated platform,” said Igor Rikalo, President and Chief Operating Officer of o9 Solutions. “One of the biggest core values of o9 is Client Value and we are pleased to support Pirelli in their digital transformation journey.
