How MEIO Enhances Kinaxis Planning for Smarter Supply Chains

In today’s fast-moving supply chain environment, businesses must balance agility, cost efficiency, and resilience. While Kinaxis provides a powerful planning platform to drive end-to-end visibility and real-time decision-making, inventory challenges persist. Many companies still struggle with right-sizing inventory buffers, managing demand volatility, and reducing excess stock. This is where Multi-Echelon Inventory Optimization (MEIO) comes in—enhancing Kinaxis’ capabilities for smarter, more efficient supply chain planning.

3. Predictive Demand & Supply Insights – By leveraging AI-driven analytics, MEIO anticipates demand fluctuations and supply risks, allowing businesses to proactively adjust inventory before disruptions occur.

4. Reduced Costs & Improved Service Levels – MEIO optimizes inventory buffers to minimize carrying costs while maintaining high service levels, ensuring businesses don’t overstock or risk stockouts.
