Cleo, the global leader in supply chain orchestration solutions, today unveiled the most powerful release to date of its Cleo Integration Cloud (CIC) platform, which is currently in use by thousands of logistics, manufacturing, distribution, and retail customers throughout the world.

Featuring a host of AI-driven capabilities, CIC gives businesses the ability to outsmart supply chain disruptions by choreographing digital B2B processes and leveraging real-time data and agentic solutions for proactive decision-making.

The latest release of CIC comes at the perfect time: Today’s supply chains need help -- and fast. Supply chain disruptions rose 38% in the past year. Pandemic aftershocks, geopolitical instabilities, cyberattacks, and climate-induced logistics crises are revealing the weaknesses in supply chains created by outdated, siloed systems, disconnected teams, and manual processes. These weaknesses are impeding companies’ agility, visibility, and growth.

“Utilizing legacy technology and services for modern supply chains creates friction that has resulted in poor customer experience, lower margins, and lack of growth. Organizations have data and process silos, gaps in visibility, and too much dependency on manual work,” said Mahesh Rajasekharan, President and CEO of Cleo. “Cleo’s AI-native approach erases the friction not just by consolidating processes and connecting data end-to-end, but also by seamlessly choreographing all of it, in real-time, through Cleo’s market-leading supply chain orchestration solutions.”

Cleo Integration Cloud: Why It’s a Better Approach

At the heart of this release is Cleo’s unique ability to not just integrate and automate supply chain processes, but to orchestrate them end-to-end with context. This capability facilitates synchronization of business processes, data, and decisions across every link in a supply chain: suppliers, manufacturers, logistics providers, distributors, and customers. Cleo’s trailblazing approach also is opening the way for truly intelligent and agile supply chains, where businesses will soon gain predictive visibility, proactive anomaly detection, and prescriptive decision-making support.

Building on Cleo’s many years of supply chain integration and automation leadership, here are a few new noteworthy capabilities:
