Oracle adds Fusion agentic applications and inventory optimisation updates for supply chain teams

0

Oracle has announced four new Fusion Agentic Applications aimed at supply chain planning, procurement and manufacturing teams, alongside new inventory optimisation capabilities for Oracle Fusion Cloud Supply Chain & Manufacturing (SCM).

The company said the additions are designed to improve inventory visibility, reduce supplier and operational impact, and increase manufacturing efficiency. The new agentic applications are built into Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM and use coordinated teams of AI agents within Oracle’s Fusion Applications security framework.

“Supply chain leaders are under increasing pressure to improve service levels, control costs, and respond faster to disruption amid ongoing economic and operational uncertainty,” said S.Y. Shenoy, senior vice president, Fusion SCM development, Oracle. “With the new agentic applications and inventory optimisation capabilities in Oracle Cloud SCM, organisations can identify issues sooner, prioritise actions, and make faster, more informed decisions across planning, procurement, and manufacturing.”

The four new Fusion Agentic Applications listed by Oracle are:

Inventory Planning Command Centre, which Oracle said helps teams improve inventory availability and resolve stockouts faster.

Supplier Qualification Workspace, which Oracle said supports procurement teams with supplier risk reduction, compliance processes, and supplier qualification.

Production Readiness Workspace, intended to help manufacturing teams improve production readiness and reduce setup errors.

Kanban Administrative Workspace, which Oracle said is designed to improve Kanban replenishment, reduce shortages and excess inventory, and maintain production flow.

Oracle also announced new inventory optimisation capabilities in Oracle Fusion Cloud Supply Chain Planning, including multi-echelon inventory optimisation, interactive inventory network visualisation, and an Inventory Optimisation Advisor Agent that highlights factors contributing to service-level shortfalls and recommends safety stock adjustments.

The announcement comes as enterprise software vendors expand “agentic” functionality—AI tools positioned to move beyond decision support to workflow execution—into core business applications. For supply chain and manufacturing organisations, such capabilities are being marketed as a way to reduce manual processes and respond more quickly to disruptions, though outcomes will depend on data quality, governance and how much autonomy organisations are willing to grant these systems.
