Bayer to Present How it Rebuilt Global Planning with OMP at Gartner Supply Chain Planning Summit 2026

17.9.2026 13:52:00 CEST | ACCESS Newswire | Press Release

ANTWERPEN, BE / ACCESS Newswire / September 17, 2026 / OMP, a leading provider of supply chain planning solutions, invites attendees of the Gartner Supply Chain Planning Summit 2026 in London to its joint session with multinational Bayer. Representatives of the Pharmaceutical division and the global IT department will show what it took to rebuild global planning around faster, higher-quality decisions, how Unison Planning^™ supports that at scale, and where AI fits in.

Rebuilding planning at Bayer's scale
Bayer treated its move to Unison Planning^™ as more than a system replacement, rebuilding processes, master data, and ways of working across its global manufacturing and affiliate network.

During their Gartner session, Mirja Meyer, Principal Product Manager and Program Lead IT at Bayer, and Karsten Hahm, Program Lead OMP Implementation at Bayer Pharmaceuticals, will cover:

What adoption actually took
What changed in decision speed and quality
Where AI fits on the roadmap ahead

Why planning leaders should attend

AI-driven planning is on every agenda. Bayer's session addresses the part that usually goes unsaid: what a planning organization needs in place before an AI implementation survives the test of a real supply chain.

Meet OMP and explore what it means to make decisions at the speed of change

Throughout the Gartner Supply Chain Planning Summit (Oct 5-6, London), OMP is present at booth 203, demonstrating how Unison Planning^™ and UnisonIQ help organizations move toward always-on supply chain orchestration. See how integrated planning, enhanced by the latest AI advancements, drives faster scenario evaluation, stronger collaboration, and measurable business results.

Join OMP at Gartner to hear Bayer's journey firsthand and leave with a clearer path to faster, more confident supply chain decisions.
