Supply chainWhat we do, and an illustrative case
Supply chains can be improved massively, in planning and in procurement.
We map how the work really runs from your own systems, measure the gap to best practice, and check every case as it happens.
What a supply chain can gainPublished results, with their sources
The gains are documented.
10–20%
lower inventory with autonomous planning, service levels kept
McKinsey, “Autonomous supply chain planning for consumer goods companies”
20–50%
lower forecast error with AI-driven demand forecasting
McKinsey, “AI-driven operations forecasting in data-light environments,” 2022
21%
lower procurement cost: world-class teams vs their peers
The Hackett Group, Digital World Class procurement benchmark (cost of running procurement)
~65%
lower cost per invoice: top-quartile vs median procure-to-pay
APQC, accounts payable benchmark: cost per invoice (top quartile $2.07, median $5.83)
What supply chain leaders needLess cash tied up, service kept
Built for how you really run.
Lean inventory
Less stock tied up, without hurting service levels.
Better forecasts
Plans built on real demand signals, not spreadsheets.
Clean procure-to-pay
Every PO and invoice matched, with fewer touches.
Low-risk start
One region, 10 weeks. Runs on-prem with open-source models.
Illustrative caseLarge manufacturer: planning and procurement
$24M saved a year.
One region, 10 weeks. An illustrative case, not an AIx2 client result: Illustrative manufacturer with $1.2B of inventory. Autonomous planning cuts inventory 10–20% with service kept (McKinsey). Assumes 10% at a 20% yearly carrying cost (typical 20–30%): $120M × 20% = $24M.
$1.2B → $1.08B
inventory
McKinsey; assumes 10% lower inventory
$5.83 → $4.00
cost per invoice
APQC accounts payable benchmark: cost per invoice $5.83 at the median, $2.07 in the top quartile. Assumes $4.00; not counted in the savings.
sample audits → 100%
invoices checked
World-class procurement runs at 21% lower cost with 32% fewer FTEs than peers (The Hackett Group). AIx2 checks every PO and invoice live.
How we get thereThe ten weeks, step by step
From your own data to live checks on every case.
Step 01: Collecting Data
Connect ERP, planning and warehouse systems; add POs, invoices and supplier data; capture e-mail, Excel and S&OP decks
Weeks 1–2
Step 02: Mapping Processes and Data Flow
Map the plan from forecast to shipment; map procure-to-pay as it really runs; trace stock by SKU and site
Weeks 3–4
Step 03: Gap Analysis
Find excess stock and what it costs; flag invoice rework and off-contract buys
Weeks 5–6
Step 04: Optimal Design
Set stock targets by SKU and site; touchless flow for clean invoices
Weeks 7–8
Step 05: Implementation Live Assurance
Live QA on every PO and invoice; flag stock-outs and excess early; track savings against the baseline
Weeks 9–10
