How it works

Maximize sales, minimize costs, reduce waste with our AI-based, unified platform

The RELEX unified platform is AI-based, incorporating machine learning since 2005 as the key component to drive analytics, forecasting, and optimization processes. RELEX enables retailers and consumer goods companies to bring their supply chain and retail operations into close alignment with actual demand. This alignment drives profitability through increased sales and reduced costs while significantly reducing waste.

    • Optimized supply planning, accurate demand forecasting 

    Manufacturers require accurate demand forecasting to face such challenges as supply delays, material shortages, budget concerns, and production capacity constraints. 

    The RELEX platform breaks down communication barriers and data silos. Manufacturers gain enhanced visibility into the end-to-end supply chain to support realistic, adaptable plans that are synchronized across planning layers and time horizons.
