Clarify Your Supply Chain

If you’re wondering why your supply chain still feels broken, have a communication issue between supply chain and operations, or simply need to build more supply chain value, we can help.

Improve your supply chain value…

Ask yourself…

Do you know where your supply chain is strong or weak? This is not about getting containers through the Panama or Suez canals, it’s about your processes.

Do you have written contracts with your critical suppliers, or are you open to risk if your handshake deal falls through?

Do you have a clean receiving process, or are you constantly losing things and you don’t know why?

Do you receive clear and understandable bid analyses from your purchasing team, or do you struggle to translate colorful spreadsheets into the right price to quote customers?

Companies of All Sizes

Leadership Experience

With leadership experience in utility & manufacturing supply chains from 4-150 team members, Passwall Solutions can find the weak links in your supply chain. Supply chains are a whole process from contracting and sourcing, through demand planning, to order entry and delivery, and assessing the performance of the complete cycle. If any of those links are broken, that might be why your supply chain isn’t performing as it should. Contact us about what doesn’t seem to be working in your supply chain and we can have a candid conversation about getting you back on track.

The Passwall Solutions Supply Chain 360 Review identifies both strengths and gaps in your supply chain, and has helped companies like Berkshire Hathaway Energy, MasTec and Wittern Group find 4-11% of their annual spend in savings and risk reduction opportunities.

Would you like to find that kind of savings too?
