River Logic expands partnership with PMI to digitize supply chain
River Logic and PMI deepen partnership for digital supply chain transformation using advanced digital twin technology.

On September 20th, River Logic announced that it had successfully expanded its partnership with Philip Morris International (PMI) to drive a series of supply chain digitalization initiatives. PMI is utilizing River Logic's advanced digital twin technology.


Carlos Centurion, the President of River Logic, expressed the company's pride in continuing its support for PMI by utilizing their digital twin technology platform to accelerate data-driven decision-making through real-world scenarios. Centurion highlighted the company's extensive experience in managing the significant amount of complex data needed by PMI and stated that he was thrilled that their technology was helping the company visualize and optimize solutions and make decisions that significantly impact operational efficiency and cost savings.


As PMI continues to transition towards a smoke-free future, we have found River Logic's digital twinning technology to be a valuable decision support tool in our supply chain. By replicating some of our networks on this platform, we can accelerate our data-driven decision-making through simulation and scenario planning," said Sunanda Ramakrishnan, Director of Digital and Analytics Strategy at Philip Morris International.
