Supply chain advisory

ADVISORY | SUPPLY CHAIN

Supply chain advisory.

Supply chain problems rarely start in the warehouse. They start in planning assumptions, decision rights and supplier terms. SreedharK Advisors diagnoses network constraints, planning gaps, service risk and working-capital traps, then aligns teams around the decisions that improve flow.

SUPPLY CHAIN EXCELLENCE

From firefighting to flow

Planning, inventory, supplier terms and decision rights aligned so operations stop constraining revenue.

When the supply chain needs a reset

Spreadsheet planning

Production planning on spreadsheets that cannot handle seasonal demand swings.

Inventory without a signal

WIP and seasonal stock building up with no demand signal to anchor it.

Service risk

Long lead times and fragile supply that put key customers at risk.

Misaligned functions

Finance, procurement and supply chain planning on different assumptions.

What changes

01

Structured forecasting and capacity management

02

Production scheduling built for demand variability

03

One planning cadence across finance, procurement and operations

04

Interim supply chain governance during separations and integrations

How it works

Every engagement starts with a diagnostic, not a proposal. The BRIDGE Model structures the work across six operating dimensions, and the Stakeholder Spectrum Diagnostic maps the people and decision points that decide whether change sticks.

FLAVORS AND FRAGRANCE | SPECIALTY INGREDIENTS

Case study: operations overhaul, mint ingredients

A specialty mint ingredients business was operating with fragmented production planning, significant WIP accumulation, and a scheduling structure built on spreadsheets that could not handle seasonal demand swings. The engagement restructured production scheduling, addressed the WIP liquidation problem, and replaced the spreadsheet-only planning model with a structured forecasting and capacity management process. Planning visibility improved within the first quarter.
