Is your supply chain adding value?
How do you know?
Your supply chain shouldn’t just keep the business running. It should move the business forward.
Improve your supply chain value...
Do you know the answer?...
Are your processes efficient? Are they good enough to implement AI without just “speeding up garbage”?
Are you getting the right value from your spend? Are you negotiating everything you can and should? Are you drowning in ambitious savings goals?
Where are your biggest risks? Do you have enough contracts and are they robust enough to survive today’s wildly volatile supply chain world?
What should you fix first? When everything is on fire, which opportunity has the most value? Which quick wins will quiet your stakeholders fastest?
If you know the answers to all of these questions, you can stop reading now. If not, this is where I can help.

Trusted Advisor
Leadership Experience
Passwall Solutions is your trusted advisor, from someone who’s been there. I’m here to tell the truth about where you are, what’s working, what’s not, and what to fix first. Then I can help you fix it.
I’m not a software vendor. I’m not an e-auction platform. I’m not a giant consulting firm with a team of (smart but inexperienced) analysts. I’ve actually run this stuff.
I started as an engineer, so I still think like one.
I was the first VP of Supply Chain for a company that would be a Fortune 200 company if it stood alone (instead of the Fortune 10 position its parent company holds).
I led a large team across the US and ran thousands of e-auctions.
I wrote Transform Procurement: The Value of E-auctions which became a bestseller in three categories and won two literary awards.

E-auctions Are A Chainsaw
When I tell people e-auctions are a negotiation tool in the toolbox, they often go straight to “e-auctions are a hammer.” But a hammer doesn’t have flexibility or grace, it can basically do one thing. I say e-auctions are a chainsaw. If that evokes a slightly visceral...
AI, BI, CI and DI: The Progression of Artificial Intelligence
AI is the biggest buzzword of the day. To Joël Collin-Demers’ point, if you can substitute the word “computers” or “technology” for AI in a sentence, it’s probably not true AI but instead is a clever use of technology. While technology is still valuable and...
