What we do

The operational core of a growing brand

We work across planning, procurement, production, and cost. Engagements are hands-on: we steady what's urgent, then install the discipline so it holds without us.

  1. Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP)

    Match supply to real demand

    We build the forecasts and the monthly S&OP rhythm that get purchasing, production, and cash decisions running on signal instead of guesswork — so you're not lurching between stockouts and dead inventory.

  2. Procurement & Supplier Management

    Build a supply base you can count on

    We source and vet suppliers, help negotiate terms, and put the scorecards and cadences in place to keep them reliable as your volume climbs.

  3. Co-Manufacturer Management

    Production that holds under growth

    We help you select, onboard, and manage co-manufacturers and co-packers — the specs, the forecasts they need, and the accountability — so scaling volume doesn't mean scaling chaos.

  4. COGS & Margin Discipline

    Know your unit economics cold

    We build the cost-of-goods visibility and discipline that keep margin from quietly eroding as you grow — so pricing, promotions, and production decisions are made with the real numbers.

  5. Fractional / Interim Ops Leadership

    Senior operational hands, without a full-time hire

    We step in to run or stand up your operations for a defined stretch — a launch, a scale-up, or a gap between leaders.

How I work

Three ways I work with founders

I work with growth-stage CPG founders in three configurations: as a fractional VP of Operations for brands that need executive-level supply chain leadership without a full-time hire; on defined project engagements — co-manufacturer search, S&OP rollout, COGS audits, packaging redesigns, or quality program design; and as an advisor for CEOs who want a trusted second opinion on operational decisions.

Every engagement starts with a 30-minute call to understand where you are, what's breaking, and whether I'm the right person for it. I stay close enough to the work to build alongside your team when it's needed, and the deliverable is the actual work — a co-manufacturer selected, an S&OP cadence live, a COGS plan running — not a slide deck about the work. Direct communication and honest scoping throughout; if the fit isn't right, we say so early.
