Global Supply Chain
Under Management
Led & Developed
Architect
Three levers that actually move the P&L.
No theory. No vendor bingo. These are the three places where effective supply chain work consistently shows up in cost, service, and revenue.
Supply Chain Planning
Demand, supply, and S&OP/S&OE discipline that protects service, frees working capital, and stops the month-end fire drills.
Cost & Revenue through Operations
On-time in full, fewer stock-outs, less obsolete inventory, better mix and margin. Where effective supply chain work cuts cost and grows sales.
Data, AI & Decision Architecture
Data trust first. AI where it earns its keep. How CSCO and CIO align on priorities, language, and ownership of outcomes.
Who I am, briefly.
Global Supply Chain Director with 20+ years in operations transformation. I have built and scaled planning hubs, designed enterprise planning standards across multiple business units, and moved cost and service metrics in large-scale industrial environments.
I write about what actually moves the P&L. Planning that holds, execution that cuts cost, commercial reliability that grows sales, and the data and AI work that supports it. No theory. No hype.
Questions I hear most often.
What do you actually do?
I help C-level and general management turn supply chain work into P&L impact. Planning discipline that protects service and working capital. Execution that cuts cost. Commercial reliability that grows sales. AI is a tool where it earns its keep, not the headline.
How does supply chain work move cost and sales?
Cost: fewer stock-outs and write-offs, lower freight and overtime, better asset utilization, less obsolete inventory. Sales: higher on-time in full, fewer lost orders, better mix and margin, confident commercial commitments. Effective planning and execution is where both sit.
Who is this for?
CEOs and MDs running P&L. CSCOs, COOs, VPs of Supply Chain and Operations. CFOs looking at working capital and cost of service. Anyone whose numbers depend on whether the operation actually ships what was promised.
Do you consult?
I write, speak, and occasionally advise. The fastest way in is the newsletter. For anything beyond that, the best starting point is a direct email.

The AI Pilot Graveyard
Most companies have 3 to 5 AI pilots running in operations right now. Ask how many reached production. Silence.
Data FoundationsData Foundations Are Not Exciting. That’s Why They Matter.
Nobody gets promoted for fixing master data. But every AI project that scaled started there.
LeadershipYour CIO Is Not Your AI Problem
AI in operations fails when ops leaders outsource the problem definition. CIO builds the platform. You define the pain.
