OMP’s AI-driven Unison Planning(TM) Platform Enhances Supply Chain Agility for McCormick & Co.

OMP is helping McCormick & Co., the global leader in flavor, with an AI-driven and autonomous operational planning initiative. This partnership enables McCormick to manage both assembly-to-order (ATO) and make-to-stock (MTS) production within the Unison PlanningTM platform.

OMP's AI-driven Unison Planning(TM) Platform Enhances Supply Chain Agility for McCormick & Co.

The initiative tackles key challenges, including balancing ATO and MTS production on shared lines, improving inventory projections through quality-based stock releases, and managing capacity amid fluctuating demand. Addressing these challenges requires close collaboration across regions with North American and EMEA teams working in parallel, and seamless integration of SAP with the operational planning functionality within Unison Planning™. The first implementations will roll out in Canada and the United States before expanding to the EMEA and APAC regions.

Through its partnership with OMP, McCormick is implementing autonomous, decision-centric planning powered by agentic AI to transform how production and inventory are managed. The solution enables McCormick teams to plan more effectively for both custom and standard productsrapidly adjust to shifts in demand or supply, and make smarter sourcing decisions. The result is a more responsive supply chain that delivers optimized cost and cash by improving alignment between market demand and production timelines, as well as supporting lower cost of goods through waste reduction. These enhancements are also expected to indirectly result in higher service levels and improved top-line growth.

“We’re really excited about this technology as part of our roadmap of digital transformation,” says Whitney Shlesinger, VP of Global Planning and Logistics. “We’re embracing AI to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and strengthen our supply chain against volatility.”

“McCormick is showing how autonomous planning, planner empowerment, and leadership alignment can strengthen resilience,” said Philip Vervloesem, Chief Commercial & Markets Officer at OMP. “Together, we are embedding AI in a way that supports agility, collaboration, and innovation across their supply chain.

OMP Unveils UnisonIQ: the AI Breakthrough Transforming Supply Chain Decision-Making

OMP, a global leader in supply chain planning solutions, today announced the availability of UnisonIQ, a game-changing AI orchestration framework that transforms supply chain decision-making through human-AI synergy. Embedded within OMP’s Unison Planning™ platform, UnisonIQ delivers insightful always-on agents that leverage Unison Companion, a generative AI-based assistant, and market-leading AI engines.

UnisonIQ

UnisonIQ

Bridging four decades of supply chain innovation with the agentic age

As supply chains face unprecedented complexity and volatility, organizations need more than traditional planning tools – they need intelligent systems that can adapt, learn, and act autonomously. 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.

With UnisonIQ, industry leaders can orchestrate decision-centric planning across their global supply chains. This framework meets manufacturers as they progress on their transformation journey, enabling a seamless evolution from AI-assisted operations to agentic teamwork and ultimately to fully autonomous planning. This new era of human-AI synergy empowers planners to harmonize end-to-end supply chains with unprecedented alignment, agility, and excellence – even amid constant disruption.

By enabling autonomous planning with full transparency, UnisonIQ demonstrates how autonomous and agentic AI are transforming the future of touchless decision-making and helping organizations build resilience in an era of relentless market volatility.

“This is an evolution grounded in reality, not just buzzwords, designed to provide incremental value and drive business adoption,” said Andrew Byer, supply chain advisor. “With UnisonIQ, organizations can now move beyond reactive planning to truly proactive, autonomous decision-making.”

Three pillars of UnisonIQ
1. Always-on agents: delivering real-world AI success
UnisonIQ introduces a new paradigm in supply chain management through decision-centric, event-driven agents that go beyond technology to offer a strategic platform for business resilience and growth. Building on forty years of supply chain innovation and expertise, and collaborating with innovation partners for validation and refinement, UnisonIQ delivers a robust framework for autonomous planning.

Its agentic architecture includes a diverse range of persona-based agents equipped with AI skills, including optimization, scenario management, and data management, transforming key decisions into plans and continuously learning from sensing and user direction:

  • Supply planning agent: Constantly optimizes production and distribution decisions
  • Scenario planning agent: Simulates complex scenarios for proactive planning
  • Demand planning agent: Anticipates market changes and optimizes forecasting processes
  • Data management agent: Ensures data quality and consistency across all planning systems

“At Zero100 Live 2025, we saw firsthand how decision-centric planning powered by agentic AI is no longer a future vision; it’s happening now,” says Philip Vervloesem, Chief Commercial Officer. “UnisonIQ brings together decades of supply chain expertise with cutting-edge AI to help planners move from reactive responses to confident, autonomous decisions.”

2. Unison Companion: driving collaboration and adoption
While Unison Planning’s AI-powered approach proactively optimizes supply chain operations, Unison Companion, its generative AI assistant, enhances user adoption and collaboration to unlock the platform’s full value. Designed to support a wide range of users, Unison Companion leverages natural language capabilities to accelerate onboarding and increase platform utilization.

Recognizing that different users have different needs, Unison Companion speaks the language of business, tailored to each role – whether it’s a data architect seeking better master data quality, a business leader influencing S&OP scenarios, or a salesperson simply asking when an order will be delivered. This personalized, AI-driven support ensures every user can obtain maximum value from the platform, regardless of their technical expertise.

3. AI engines: solving complex problems with predictive and prescriptive intelligence
UnisonIQ integrates a sophisticated suite of AI engines designed to support autonomous, decision-centric supply chain planning. Powered by the always-on agents, these engines combine classical optimization techniques, advanced machine learning (ML), and explainable AI (XAI) to deliver agility, transparency, and strategic insight across the entire planning process.

Using telescopic digital twins in combination with advanced optimization and ML, these engines allow companies to simulate, explore, and optimize supply chains while accounting for real-world constraints. The result: smarter, more agile decisions and stronger performance across service, inventory, cost, and ESG metrics – with full understanding of how every decision is made and executed.

Discover more AI innovations, case studies and analyst insights.

Experience UnisonIQ in action
Join us at the OMP REAL Conference 2025, November 18-19 in Miami, to see UnisonIQ in action. Hear from global leaders, including AstraZeneca, Beiersdorf, Eastman, Kraft Heinz, Land O’Lakes, and Visy, as they share how Unison Planning™ helps them scale innovation, build sustainable supply chains, and drive resilience.

Evonik Oxeno Goes Live with Upgraded Decision-Centric Planning Platform in the Cloud

OMP and Evonik Oxeno announce the successful go-live of a significant digital transformation milestone: the move of OMP’s Unison Planning™ to the cloud across Evonik Oxeno’s key production sites in Marl and Antwerp. With this project going live, Oxeno elevates its planning capabilities into a new insight-driven, decision-centric planning era.

Evonik Oxeno Goes Live with Upgraded Decision-Centric Planning Platform in the Cloud

This is not a new beginning. It’s the next evolution of a platform that has been live and delivering real results since April 2021. Over the last four years, Evonik Oxeno has embraced decision-centric planning, calculating 30 to 50 scenarios per day and nearly 10,000 simulations since the launch. These scenarios allow teams to explore future possibilities and make informed, data-driven decisions across the company’s chemical value chain. The result is a supply chain that can respond to feedstock volatility, market shifts, or logistical risks while safeguarding business continuity and capturing opportunities.

The newly deployed version is a significant enhancement, built from the ground up based on four years of operational insight. It introduces a streamlined cloud environment, a purpose-built framework for continuous production, and more intelligent, low-friction workflows, making it easier and faster for planners to proactively optimize, simulate, compare, and act on complex scenarios. While the core approach remains the same, the new version lowers the barriers to advanced planning. It accelerates the path to insight, empowering planners to focus more on strategic decision-making.

“We didn’t reinvent how we work, we just made it easier,” said Frank Beißmann, Managing Director at Evonik Oxeno. “With this new version, we’ve taken everything we’ve learned and turned it into a faster, more intuitive, and even more powerful platform supporting confident, proactive decisions.”

OMP’s continued partnership with Evonik Oxeno underscores a shared commitment to innovation and operational excellence in the chemical industry.

“Oxeno’s forward-thinking approach is a benchmark for what decision-centric planning can achieve,” said Christian Wöllenstein, Senior Project Manager at OMP. “This upgrade reflects our shared vision of continuous improvement, one where supply chain planning is deeply intelligent, future-proof, and business-aligned.”

For a deeper dive into how Evonik Oxeno transformed its planning – including organizational changes, scenario-based decision-making, and sustainability gains beyond what’s covered here – explore the full story.
