Who We Are<\/p><\/h1><\/div><\/div><\/div>
River Logic is an innovator in advanced planning capabilities, offering unique techniques to address the complexities of today\u2019s supply chain and manufacturing processes, both operationally and strategically.<\/p>\n
Our team\u2014composed of visionaries, AI research professors, and mathematicians from around the world\u2014envisioned a future in which business users could independently build planning models using optimization and constraint-based modeling, eliminating the need for programmer assistance.<\/p>\n
This vision was realized with the development of Enterprise Optimizer\u00ae, the foundation for our intelligent Digital Planning Twin\u2122 platform. This platform supports the solutions our partners build under their own brands, as well as those we create under the EO brand, such as Value Chain Optimization (VCO).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
Our vision required some of the most innovative thinking of how to get complex scenario modeling that included constraint-based and optimization capabilities to model virtually any planning problem, out of the hands of data scientists and into the hands of people who needed to make the decisions. Others have shared this vision; River Logic uniquely solved it.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
To empower decision makers with scenario modeling, we created the first code-free platform that uses expert systems, allowing users to visually describe planning problems and generate mathematical representations automatically. This involved extensive collaboration with major companies across many industries to build the necessary knowledge bases.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
Models Must Combine Operational and Financial Data<\/span><\/p><\/h4><\/div> Combining operational and financial data in a single model has long been the goal of planning. River Logic has achieved this by uniquely creating a financial representation from operational data. This approach, developed over decades, allows decision-makers to view a unified truth about decisions and their impacts. Plus, model outputs can now be validated against existing financials, eliminating the black box problem.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> To achieve our vision of a code-free planning system, we built a Business Knowledge Repository that encompasses essential analytics like accounting principles, activity-based costing, optimization, and more. With decades of effort, River Logic and its partners can now automatically apply this knowledge to create the necessary mathematical representations.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> Our code-free platform, paired with our knowledge base, enables effortless changes to a decision maker’s outcome objective, which we refer to as your Objective Function. Whether you want to optimize profit, throughput, or cash flow, simply adjust the settings. Any objective can be turned into a constraint\u2014like setting a cash flow minimum while optimizing for profit.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> The vision of breaking down silos to better understand their financial impact has long been the \u201choly grail\u201d of planning. While major ERP vendors claim to model enterprises, they fall short. Our platform is specifically designed to bridge silos\u2014beyond S&OP\u2014allowing representation of all functions and integration of organizational objectives and constraints, including tariffs, regulatory requirements, and emission goals.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-14916","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nCreate THE Repository of Business Knowledge<\/h4><\/div>
