Most manufacturers are stuck chasing supplier failures, scrambling on inventory, reacting to problems that should never have happened. We fix the operating system behind the chaos so performance becomes repeatable, not heroic.
The loop looks the same in every plant we walk into.
A supplier misses a shipment. The team scrambles. The customer gets an excuse. Repeat.
Most companies have the data they need. What they're missing is the operating discipline between internal teams and external suppliers. That's where we focus.
Three ways to engage based on what your business actually needs right now.
Part-time supply chain leadership for companies that need senior expertise but aren't ready to hire a full-time VP or Director.
Full-time leadership stepping in when you're between hires, managing a crisis, or navigating a critical transition.
Defined scope work on specific problems. Supplier stabilization, dual-sourcing strategy, S&OP rebuild, ERP readiness.
20+ years fixing supply chains that others had written off.
Sarah founded Step Change Supply Chain to give mid-market manufacturers access to senior supply chain expertise without the overhead of a large consulting firm.
Her career spans automotive, aerospace, construction, filtration, and food manufacturing. She's been on the plant floor during ERP cutovers, in the conference room rebuilding S&OP from scratch, and in the executive suite when the numbers finally started moving in the right direction.
Built on nearly a decade of independent consulting experience, Step Change engagements are hands-on and practical. We find what's broken, fix the operating system behind it, and build the discipline to keep it working.
If your team is spending more time expediting than executing, it's time for a conversation. Discovery calls are free and typically 30 minutes.
