Kinaxis Maestro™ and Databricks’ Data Intelligence Platform come together to power faster insights, unified data, and scalable AI across global supply chains
OTTAWA, Ontario & SAN FRANCISCO, April 01, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kinaxis® (TSX:KXS), a global leader in end-to-end supply chain orchestration, and Databricks, the data and AI company, today announced a partnership to set a new standard for intelligent supply chain decision-making.
By combining Kinaxis Maestro™, the only AI-native platform purpose-built for end-to-end supply chain orchestration, with the scalability and governance of the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform, the companies are enabling organizations to unify their data, accelerate AI adoption, and respond to change with speed and confidence.
This collaboration meets growing demand for more agile, data-driven supply chains. It strengthens Maestro’s supply chain data fabric, helping companies bring together information from core systems like inventory and procurement, alongside external inputs such as weather patterns and market signals, all within one governed environment. The result is faster insights, greater execution agility, and a more resilient, innovation-ready supply chain.
"Global supply chain organizations are dealing with more data than ever, but it’s often fragmented across systems, making it difficult to act quickly or consistently," said Andrew Bell, chief product officer at Kinaxis. "This partnership strengthens the data fabric that powers Maestro™, accelerating our AI innovation agenda and enabling faster, smarter decisions at scale. Together, we’re giving businesses the ability to orchestrate their supply chains with the intelligence and speed today’s disruptions demand."
Purpose-Built for Supply Chain Performance
Maestro was built specifically for supply chain orchestration, embedding domain-specific intelligence into every layer of the platform designed to drive planning, execution, and decision-making. With the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform powering its underlying data infrastructure and Delta Sharing powering seamless, secure, cross-platform data sharing, companies can integrate once and leverage that data across every function - reducing silos, eliminating duplication, and enabling predictive, generative, and autonomous AI at scale.
Maestro already powers millions of simulations annually to help companies manage volatility. Now, with Databricks’ elasticity and scale, it can process even more complex data environments without compromising trust. Databricks offers enterprise-grade data controls, while Kinaxis ensures decisions are backed by explainable AI that remains traceable and auditable.
