Does Olligents work with our existing ERP and planning systems?
Yes. Olligents works alongside existing ERP and planning tools, including SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Kinaxis, o9 and FuturMaster.
Agents use data from your systems to identify issues, assess options and carry out authorised actions in the systems your teams already use. You don’t need to replace your existing ERP or planning tools.
During the initial assessment, we confirm the connections and access requirements for your environment.
What does our IT team need to do?
Your IT team helps establish the connections, permissions and security requirements the agents need. We work with them to agree access to the relevant systems and data, and how authorised actions will be carried out.
The involvement required depends on your systems and the scope of the first use case. We agree those requirements before implementation, so your team understands what is needed.
We already have an AI programme. How would Olligents fit?
Olligents adds a specific focus on supply chain execution. Its agents work together across your existing systems to address operational issues and take action within agreed authority, bringing decisions that need human judgement to your team.
Built on Oliver Wight’s business process expertise, the agents bring operational knowledge to applications such as managing inventory and responding to demand changes. We work with your business and IT teams to assess how Olligents fits your existing AI programme and governance requirements.
How much autonomy do the agents have?
You agree the responsibilities and authority of each agent. Depending on its role and configuration, an agent can recommend actions for approval or carry out actions within defined limits.
Decisions outside those limits are referred to your team. You can begin with closer oversight and review the level of autonomy as confidence in the agent’s performance grows.
How do you protect our data?
Olligents is hosted on Microsoft Azure, with data encrypted in transit and at rest. Agents access only the data they need, through permissions your IT team controls and can revoke. Your data is never used to train models for other clients.
We confirm hosting region requirements during implementation and support your security review with information about data handling, our Data Processing Agreement and GDPR documentation. We also provide details of our current ISO 27001 certification and SOC 2 assurance status, including work in progress.
Who is behind Olligents?
Olligents brings together Oliver Wight’s expertise in business planning and operational execution with MyExoBrain’s expertise in agent technology for supply chain operations.
Together, they combine an understanding of your processes, priorities and people with technology that helps turn plans into action.
How quickly can we see value?
Customers using the system have seen measurable benefits within weeks. We usually recommend starting with one agent focused on a specific operational challenge, with agreed objectives and measures of success.
The timing depends on your use case, data readiness and integration requirements. Starting with a focused application helps you demonstrate value before extending to additional agents or locations.
