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.

Negotiate Smarter, Not Harder: A Deep Dive into Data-Powered Procurement Methods
The last time I searched for an image depicting negotiation, all I found were variations of two shaking hands – unmistakably two white men in suits. This time, as you can see, there were more diverse options. In today’s business landscape, negotiations rarely play out...
Strategic Scoping: Maximizing Value and Minimizing Risk in Procurement
One of the often overlooked benefits of an e-Auction program is the improvement in scopes of work. This is because when any qualified supplier who can provide the scope of work can participate in the e-Auction, suddenly the answer “my incumbent knows what we need”...
Rethinking Value: e-Auctions as Catalysts for Remarkable Lead Time Reductions
As I was on a call with a supply chain leader last week, they brought up all the common objections to e-Auctions: Too impersonal. Too transactional. Don’t like them. So I asked what they were struggling with. “Lead times are still horrible on our key commodities” was...
