Blue Ridge Launches Next-Generation Planning Platform with AI at Its Core

Built on Databricks and nearly two decades of planning expertise, the platform embeds purpose-built AI that leaders can act on with confidence.

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Blue Ridge Global, a leading provider of Supply Chain Intelligence for distributors, manufacturers, and retailers, today launched its AI-native platform for supply chain planning.

Supply chain leaders are making faster, higher-stakes decisions on service levels and working capital, with the signals that matter spread across more systems than any team can reconcile. Increasingly, those decisions depend on AI they cannot see inside.

“The next era of supply chain planning will be defined by more than just better forecasts. It will run on intelligence: every signal brought together, decisions made at speed, and AI that shows its reasoning. That is the platform we built, and it is how Blue Ridge is moving the industry from supply chain planning to Supply Chain Intelligence,” said Kyle Pexton, CEO of Blue Ridge.

That transparency starts with the Adaptive ML Forecast Engine. A single model learns across the entire portfolio, and every forecast shows the drivers behind it, such as seasonality, promotions, and external signals. Agentic AI carries that transparency into execution, designed to take on repetitive tasks with every action traceable.

The result is one source of truth. Finance, operations, and planning commit to purchasing, inventory, and service levels from the same numbers, in a governed workspace each team configures to its workflows.

Underneath, the platform scales with SKUs, locations, and complexity, and connects to more than 40 ERP systems. Security is engineered into every layer, from how data moves in and out to the code that runs it, with threat monitoring around the clock. Blue Ridge is SOC 2 Type II certified.

That is Supply Chain Intelligence in practice: AI transparent from data to decision, with planners and leaders making the final call.
