About

Kinaxis was founded in 1984 in Ottawa, Canada, and has evolved from an early supply chain planning tools vendor into a leading AI-powered supply chain orchestration platform. Listed on the Nasdaq as KXS, the company's mission is to help global organizations achieve supply chain agility — the ability to sense disruptions, simulate scenarios, and respond in real time across complex multi-tier networks. Its RapidResponse platform was purpose-built for concurrent planning, a methodology that connects all supply chain decisions simultaneously.\n\nKinaxis's platform combines demand sensing, inventory optimization, production scheduling, sales and operations planning, and logistics coordination in a single concurrent model. Unlike traditional sequential planning tools, RapidResponse allows planners to see the cascading impact of any change across the entire supply chain instantly. The platform is used by manufacturers in aerospace, automotive, consumer goods, life sciences, and high-tech industries, with customers including Lockheed Martin, Pfizer, and Unilever.\n\nKinaxis reported $483.11M in total revenue for 2024, a 13.15% year-over-year increase, with $391M ARR as of Q2 2025 and full-year 2025 guidance of $535–550M. The company has accelerated its AI capabilities through its Maestro AI engine, which adds predictive insights and autonomous recommendations to its planning workflows. Kinaxis is consistently recognized as a leader in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Supply Chain Planning and holds a strong competitive position against SAP IBP and Blue Yonder.
