Kallikor, a leader in supply chain simulation technology, has announced the appointment of Chris Brett (pictured right) as chief technology and product officer. Mr Brett will lead the development and delivery of Kallikor’s pioneering simulation and scenario planning platform, empowering organisations to make confident, data-informed decisions in an increasingly challenging world.
Formerly head of robotics at Ocado, Mr Brett brings over 18 years’ experience in developing intelligent automation and simulation systems — he was instrumental in developing Ocado’s patented swarm robotics storage and retrieval system and is an expert in scalable, AI-powered technology solutions.
At Kallikor, he will lead the evolution of its composable simulation digital twin platform, a system designed to make powerful scenario modelling tools accessible to non-technical users. Supply chain leaders and professionals can make faster, more confident decisions without needing to have the perfect dataset or coding experience. Kallikor’s composable simulation digital twin platform ‘transforms operational design into a dynamic, evidence-driven capability that balances cost, service, sustainability and resilience’.
Mr Brett said: “Supply chain leaders today face unprecedented complexity. Organisations that make use of simulation-driven intelligence will gain a competitive advantage in adapting to market volatility and optimising operations. I am excited to join Kallikor and help transform how businesses approach complex decision-making.”
Kallikor’s CEO Jonathan Barrett said: “As businesses struggle with outdated tools that fail to address today’s complex challenges and face mounting pressure to make faster, smarter decisions, Chris brings the visionary leadership and technical expertise needed to deliver on our promise. His background in building scalable simulation solutions aligns perfectly with our mission to democratise strategic foresight and become the global standard for dynamic, simulation-driven decision-making.”
Mr Brett’s appointment comes at a time of accelerating demand for simulation and scenario planning in the supply chain sector. More companies are seeking to model competing initiatives, evaluate trade offs and de-risk decisions in real time, all within a single, unified platform.
