Aera Technology announced the Aera Cognitive Operating System, a cloud platform for Cognitive Automation. Aera is the industry's first Cognitive Operating System that enables the Self-Driving Enterprise. Aera combines both internal and external data across the enterprise, applies science to derive insights and recommendations, digitizes and augments decision processes and operationalizes change by digitizing institutional expertise and experience. Aera's Cognitive Operating System connects data, science, process and change to build a digital brain within the enterprise.

"Aera's Cognitive Operating System is the only solution that builds a permanent memory of every decision and outcome," said Frederic Laluyaux, CEO of Aera Technology. "Even though companies are digitally transforming, critical supply chain decision-making and processes are still driven by humans interacting with aging organizational ERP and CRM systems, processes, and data silos. The Aera Cognitive Operating System becomes the digital brain within the enterprise. Aera learns how businesses work, makes real-time recommendations, predicts outcomes, and acts autonomously, allowing enterprises to become self-driving.”

"Aera's Cognitive Automation Operating System solves critical business imperatives for us," said Saqib Mehmood, Global SVP Business Solutions & Insights, Hygiene Home, RB. "The Aera Cognitive Automation Platform accelerates operations to Internet speed and scale by introducing a cloud cognitive layer to augment and automate our enterprise analytics and decision-making. As Aera learns, decisions are made faster, they're more accurate and impactful. Organizationally, we're learning, adapting and becoming more agile too. New insights are continually discovered that improve and transform supply chains, operations, and organizational performance.”
