ANN ARBOR, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov 18, 2025--

Campfire Interactive, the leader in profitability optimization software for automotive and manufacturing suppliers, today announced the launch of Profitability A.I., a breakthrough Profit Optimization Platform designed to help Tier 1 and Tier 2 automotive suppliers protect margins, improve forecast accuracy, and win more profitable business. The company unveiled the new platform at the 2025 MEMA Annual Conference.

As suppliers navigate unrelenting cost pressures, OEM price-downs, and the uncertainty of electrification, profitability has become increasingly difficult to sustain. Campfire’s Profitability A.I. addresses this challenge by uniting forecasting, quoting, and program execution into one intelligent system that continuously analyzes cost drivers, customer program changes, and market dynamics—helping suppliers turn volatility into margin gains.

A New Era of Profit Intelligence

Profitability A.I. is built specifically for the automotive supply base and integrates advanced artificial intelligence with decades of industry experience. It embeds profit intelligence directly into daily workflows, empowering teams across finance, sales, and operations to make every forecast, quote, and program decision margin-aware.

Key capabilities include:

  • AI-Driven Profit Intelligence – Real-time insights into commodity costs, customer demands, and supply signals to anticipate margin risks before they hit.
  • Quotation Intelligence – Faster cycle times, pricing guardrails, and win-rate analytics to secure more profitable deals.
  • Forecast Precision – AI-powered what-if scenarios and continuous updates that reduce forecast misses by 2–5%, unlocking millions in savings.
  • Program Profitability – Early warnings on cost overruns, recovery workflows for OEM change requests, and long-term visibility into margin health.

“Profitability A.I. is more than a product—it’s a movement toward intelligent profitability,” said Alex George, CEO of Campfire Interactive. “Automotive suppliers need more than spreadsheets and reactive tools—they need proactive, real-time intelligence that guides every decision toward stronger margins. That’s exactly what Profitability A.I. delivers.”

Purpose-Built for the Automotive and Manufacturing Industries

Unlike generic ERP or BI tools, Profitability A.I. is purpose-built for Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers and reflects the complex realities of automotive and manufacturing ecosystems—from quoting and cost modeling to program lifecycle management.

“Campfire was founded on one belief,” added Brad Schechter, VP of Marketing at Campfire Interactive. “Profitability shouldn’t be left to chance. With Profitability A.I., we’re giving suppliers the intelligence to act faster, smarter, and more profitably than ever before.”

Profitability A.I. will be demonstrated live at the MEMA Annual Conference, where Campfire Interactive sales executives will showcase how the platform transforms profitability management and optimization for suppliers.
