Warehousing
Distribution & fulfillment operations are facing increasing pressure from competitive labor markets, shrinking demand, space limitations, and consumer expectations. Many organizations are operating facilities that were not designed for today’s order profiles, system complexity, or fulfillment speed, creating risk and stress from a cost and service perspective. Leaders are also being asked to make critical, capital intensive decisions around automation, material handling, warehouse systems, and 3PL partners, where poor integration or execution can quickly lead to negative consequences on a business. A disciplined, experience-led and unbiased approach is essential to improve performance while reducing operational and investment risk.
Designing new or existing facilities
Designing a new warehouse or consolidating multiple into one is a high-stakes investment that shapes operating cost, service levels, and flexibility for years to come. Success depends on making the right decisions early—across layout, processes, material handling, automation, and systems—based on detailed analysis and realistic assumptions about what someone can manage. We support clients from early concept development through detailed design, vendor selection, and implementation—ensuring solutions are scalable, well-integrated, and aligned with a business’s long-term strategy.
Unlocking operational performance
Identifying the myriad of underlying issues that inhibit best-in-class performance is challenging. As supply chain experts, we assess existing operations to identify performance gaps driven by design or execution.

From targeted process improvements to full operational recovery, we design & implement pragmatic solutions that improve productivity or when needed get operations back on track.
