The Invisible Upgrade: How ketteQ’s PolymatiQ™ Turns Logility into an Adaptive AI Engine

Let’s be honest: no supply chain executive wants another technology overhaul. The last thing any CIO, COO, or VP of Operations wants to hear is that the system they’ve invested in years of refining is now obsolete.

But what if it isn’t?

What if your existing Logility environment could evolve into something faster, smarter, and more adaptivewithout starting from scratch?

That’s precisely what ketteQ’s PolymatiQ™ adaptive AI engine makes possible.

From Platform Fatigue to Performance Breakthrough

Many organizations have reached a point where Logility still functions, but not at the pace of business today. Planning runs that once took hours now stretch into days. Integrations strain under growing data volumes. Scenario planning feels too rigid to respond to the volatility that has become the new normal.

This fatigue isn’t because Logility failed; it’s because supply chains have become more complex, more data-rich, and more uncertain. Traditional single-pass solvers were never designed to handle this level of variability in real-time.

That’s where PolymatiQ™, ketteQ’s agentic AI engine, changes the equation.

The Power of a Headless AI Engine

PolymatiQ™ doesn’t replace Logility. It operates quietly behind the scenes, continuously running thousands of multi-pass solves in memory, each refining outcomes based on the latest data.

This engine transforms static plans into living, adaptive systems. Instead of calculating once and stopping, PolymatiQ™ continues to solve, learn, and improve. It automatically adjusts for new variables, from supplier delays to demand shifts, without requiring planners to restart or manually tweak parameters.

The best part? Users don’t have to learn anything new. They continue working in the Logility user interface that they already know. PolymatiQ™ simply makes it faster, more responsive, and more intelligent.

Adaptive vs. Deterministic Thinking

Traditional planning is deterministic, where you feed data, run a solve, and get a single output. But in the real world, supply chain variables rarely stay fixed.

Adaptive planning, powered by PolymatiQ, utilizes probabilistic modeling to anticipate change and continuously test alternative scenarios. The system becomes dynamic, not static, capable of surfacing the most resilient plan even when conditions shift mid-cycle.

It’s like the difference between a photograph and a live video feed: one freezes a moment in time; the other captures reality as it unfolds.

Real-World Impact

For Partner in Pet Food (PPF), this shift produced extraordinary results. After years of using their legacy planning platform, capacity utilization had stalled at 88%. Rip-and-replace wasn’t an option; they needed a smarter way forward.

By layering PolymatiQ™ on top of their existing legacy planning system, PPF went live in under five weeks. Within the first planning cycle:

• Capacity utilization increased by 13%

• Waste dropped by 10%, saving 22 tons of cost

• Agility improved across 12 plants, spanning 10 countries and 35 markets

All without replacing a single system or retraining a single planner.

The “Invisible Upgrade” in Action

That’s the beauty of PolymatiQ™, it’s invisible but transformative. Your teams don’t feel the disruption of a new platform rollout. Instead, they notice that planning runs are faster,  reports refresh instantly, and scenarios are easier to compare.

It’s a quiet revolution: the same system, suddenly capable of real-time, adaptive intelligence.

In the words of one of our clients, “It felt like the brakes came off our planning process.”

A Smarter, Lower-Risk Path Forward

For every executive feeling pressure to deliver more from their existing systems, PolymatiQ represents a pragmatic alternative to a costly rip-and-replace approach. It respects your current investment in Logility while future-proofing it with adaptive AI.

In a world where volatility is constant, the organizations that thrive aren’t those with the newest systems; they’re the ones that learn and adapt the fastest.

PolymatiQ™ gives Logility that power.

Looking Ahead

In the next post, we’ll look at how leading companies across manufacturing, distribution, and service industriesare enhancing rather than replacing their planning environments to accelerate ROI, strengthen resilience, and unlock millions in value.

Because the future of supply chain planning isn’t about starting over. It’s about evolving smarter.
