Don’t Lock Yourself into Legacy Supply Chain Software – Until You See What AI Agents Can Do

Blog / Don’t Lock Yourself into Legacy Supply Chain Software – Until You See What AI Agents Can Do

Supply Chain Leaders – your next big cost-saving opportunity isn’t hidden in your P&L. It’s in the platform you choose.

In a world where tariff shocks and trade disputes can wipe out millions in margin overnight, staying reactive is a risk you can’t afford. Outdated, static supply chain software won’t help you anticipate disruption — let alone act on it.

It’s time to rethink your stack.

Before you renew any legacy license, ask yourself this:

• Can your current system simulate the impact of a new tariff before it hits?
• Can it reposition inventory dynamically, across your entire network?
• Can it model multiple trade scenarios — in real-time — and guide your teams with actionable insight?

If the answer is NO, you’re already BEHIND.

AI Agents Are Here – And They’re Already Saving Millions

Planning in a Box – Pi Agent, now live on Google Agentspace, is designed to help supply chain leaders rapidly adapt to change, optimize inventory, and deliver real-time planning precision in a world dominated by disruption.

Forget templates and dashboards. We’re talking about intelligent, always-on agents that proactively:

• Sense tariff or policy changes globally
  
• Simulate impact across demand and supply
  
• Recommend optimal inventory adjustments
• Enable cross-functional collaboration between planners, IT, and finance

This isn’t a nice-to-have. It’s your next competitive edge.
