Forecasting & Planning Support
We implement tools and strategies to improve demand forecasting, safety stock decisions, and order cycles across your SKUs.
Supplier & Production Alignment
We help synchronize procurement and production schedules to avoid overstock, stockouts, and misaligned deliveries.
Digitized Workflows
Our team introduces dashboards, tracking tools, and SOPs to make your supply chain visible, responsive, and easier to manage.
Scalable Solutions
Whether you’re local or international, early-stage or scaling fast, we build systems you can grow with.

Whether you're growing fast or fixing what's broken, we deliver results that stick, no fluff, just impact.
Supply Chain Consulting Services That Deliver Results
Supply Chain Assessment & Mapping
We audit your end-to-end supply chain including suppliers, production, warehouses, and transport using data and mapping tools. This reveals inefficiencies like excess handovers, poor routes, or bottlenecks. You get a clear, visual blueprint highlighting risks, cost drivers, and improvement opportunities.
Forecasting & Inventory Optimization
We refine your demand planning using real-time data and variability analysis. By adjusting safety stocks, reorder points, and lead times, we help reduce excess inventory, cut holding costs, and minimize stockouts, boosting availability across SKUs and sales channels.
S&OP Process Development
Our team builds or refines your Sales & Operations Planning process, creating structured monthly planning cycles, aligning demand and supply forecasts, and connecting commercial, supply chain, and finance teams to improve decision-making and execution.
Supplier Collaboration & Scheduling
We set up supplier routines like joint planning calendars, rolling forecasts, buffer stock plans, and check-ins to reduce last-minute rushes and delays. This improves responsiveness, strengthens supplier relationships, and creates a more agile supply chain.
Digitization & Workflow Tools
We deploy tools like dashboards, scorecards, and trackers to reduce manual work and boost visibility. You get real-time updates, faster reactions, and scalable supply chain control.
How We Help
Our consultants work closely with your sourcing, ops, and logistics teams to redesign supply flows, increase efficiency, and improve control.
Network Optimization
We conduct a granular analysis of your supplier, production, and distribution footprint. This includes evaluating supplier lead times, shipping lanes, plant utilization, and warehouse positioning. Based on total landed cost, responsiveness, and risk exposure, we recommend structural changes such as regionalizing supply nodes, adjusting sourcing splits, or restructuring multi-tier supplier hierarchies to build resilience and reduce delays.
Forecasting & Demand Planning
We assess historical sales, market trends, seasonality, and product launch cadences to redesign your forecasting approach. By applying demand segmentation and statistical modeling, we help you reduce forecast error, shorten planning cycles, and shift from reactive ordering to proactive planning, especially for high-mix or volatile SKUs.
Inventory & Reorder Strategy
We analyze inventory velocity, shelf life, and service-level targets to rebuild your replenishment logic. This includes optimizing minimum order quantities (MOQs), setting dynamic reorder points, and defining tiered safety stock strategies across product categories and fulfillment locations. The outcome is improved service rates with less tied-up capital and lower holding costs.
Production Scheduling Alignment
We synchronize procurement schedules with production cycles to reduce misalignment and firefighting. This includes improving the communication loop between demand planning, raw material ordering, and factory floor execution. We help you reduce downtime, urgent shipments, and missed delivery windows, ensuring capacity is better utilized and product flow stays on track.
Supply Chain Consulting Process
Initial Consultation & Supply Review
We begin by mapping your end-to-end supply chain—including supplier tiers, lead times, transportation lanes, order cycles, and demand variability. We assess current sourcing strategies, working capital tied to inventory, and supplier performance metrics. This gives us a diagnostic baseline and highlights critical inefficiencies, risk zones, or cost drivers.
Bottleneck & Cost Analysis
We dig into your most pressing challenges—whether it’s persistent stockouts, delayed shipments, overstocking, or high landed costs. Our consultants combine system data with platform insights to trace the root causes across procurement, production, and logistics. We break this down into measurable problems such as long supplier lead times, inconsistent fill rates, fragmented order planning, or poor capacity forecasting.
Strategic Planning & Supply Chain Redesign
Using inputs like volume forecasts, category-specific risks, and required service levels, we develop targeted recommendations. This could include adjusting reorder parameters, segmenting SKUs by demand predictability, restructuring supplier allocation, or building new sourcing models (e.g., nearshoring or dual sourcing). We also design resilient inventory buffers and production alignment frameworks that balance speed and cost.
Execution Support & SOP Development
We don’t just hand over a report. We help your team roll out new workflows and planning routines—such as structured order planning cycles, supplier check-in calendars, escalation paths, and dashboard-driven reviews. We also train your internal teams on new standard operating procedures (SOPs), templates, and tools that embed these changes into daily execution.
Monitoring, Optimization & Continuous Improvement
We help you build an ongoing supply chain improvement cycle. This includes defining clear KPIs (e.g., OTIF, inventory turns, forecast accuracy), setting up exception alerts, and introducing check-in cadences with suppliers and internal teams. Using dashboards and performance feedback loops, we ensure the strategy evolves with your business and market changes without slipping back into old inefficiencies.
