In practice

Demand shifts overnight and your plan doesn't catch up until someone reruns it. Blue Yonder's agents sense demand and adjust inventory and transportation on their own, so the plan moves with the signal.

Inventory, logistics, and network decisions get made in separate tools that don't talk. Blue Yonder runs them as a multi-agent system on one platform, so the agents coordinate instead of working in isolation.

Replanning is a monthly event and reality doesn't wait for it. Blue Yonder's agents run continuously across demand, inventory, and transportation, adjusting as conditions change rather than on a calendar.
