Describe the problem.
Get the optimal decision.
COR turns plain-language questions into optimized, explainable decisions across your value chain — from sourcing and production to financial plans and emissions targets.
OPTIMIZING VALUE CHAINS AT ENTERPRISES WORLDWIDE
HOW IT WORKS
From a sentence to a defensible decision
No model-building, no spreadsheets. COR reads your goal, builds the optimization behind the scenes, and shows its work.
Describe it
Ask in plain language — "cut cost without missing service," "hit our 2030 target." No model to build, no schema to learn.
COR optimizes
Behind the scenes it assembles a prescriptive model of your value chain, respects every constraint, and solves for the true optimum.
Decide with proof
You get the recommended decision, the trade-offs it weighed, and the constraints that bound it — ready to defend and act on.
THE PRODUCT
A workspace for decisions, not dashboards
Every answer is traceable to the constraints, drivers, and trade-offs behind it — so your team can trust it and act.
Ask in plain language. RIA does the modeling.
Start from a sentence — “cut logistics cost without missing service.” RIA, the COR assistant, interprets the goal, assembles the optimization, and comes back with a decision you can act on.
- ✓No schema, no spreadsheets, no solver expertise required
- ✓Follow-up questions refine the scenario in context
- ✓Every reply links back to the model behind it
A living model of your value chain
Behind every answer is a structured, prescriptive model. Author and adjust the logic, constraints, and drivers visually — or let RIA shape it for you as the conversation unfolds.
- ✓Visual authoring of constraints and relationships
- ✓Versioned, governed, and auditable
- ✓Reuse model logic across decisions and teams
Every decision model, in one library
Browse, search, and reuse the models powering your planning. New questions start from proven logic instead of a blank page, so insight compounds across the organization.
- ✓Curated, shareable model catalog
- ✓Templates for sourcing, production, finance and ESG
- ✓Permissions and ownership built in
Turn a one-off answer into a repeatable process
Chain data, models, and approvals into workflows so the same decision can be re-run every week, every quarter, or whenever the inputs change — automatically.
- ✓Drag-and-connect workflow builder
- ✓Scheduled and event-driven re-optimization
- ✓Hand-offs and approvals where they belong
Purpose-built apps on top of the engine
Package a model into a focused application — like the Site Planner — so business users get a guided, on-brand experience while the optimization runs underneath.
- ✓Tailored UIs for specific decisions
- ✓Same engine, no new infrastructure
- ✓Ship to non-technical stakeholders
WHAT TEAMS SAY
Decisions leaders can defend
“We described our Q3 sourcing problem in a sentence and had a defensible plan the same afternoon. It used to take our team two weeks of spreadsheet work.”
“The part that won over my CFO wasn't the savings — it was that every recommendation shows exactly which constraint is binding. We can defend it in the boardroom.”
“RIA feels like having an optimization PhD on call. I ask in plain English and get a rigorous answer back, not a black box.”
“We hit our 2030 emissions target in the model without blowing past our landed-cost ceiling. COR found a path our planners hadn't considered.”
“Standing up a Site Planner app for our regional teams took days, not a quarter. Same engine, totally different audience.”
“The workflows mean our weekly replan just runs. The optimization re-solves on the new data and flags anything that moved.”
“Adoption was the surprise. Analysts who never touched our old optimization tools are running scenarios on their own now.”
“It collapsed the gap between "what should we do" and "here's the model that proves it." That gap used to be where deals stalled.”
“We re-source 28% of inbound on a low-carbon plan that actually clears finance. COR made the trade-offs explicit instead of theoretical.”
