Supply Chain Management Consulting Built on Proven Rules

In supply chain management, the teams that win are the ones with the clearest rules — and the discipline to apply them. ChainSequence supply chain consultants help your business install proven, best-practice planning processes, then align them with the systems and decisions that drive results.

Every supply chain planning process is built from four core components: Demand Management, Supply Management, Demand/Supply Alignment, and Order Management. Our supply chain management consulting services help you understand how these elements support each other, define the rules that make each one best-in-class, and integrate them across your full supply chain network.

Before software ever enters the picture, we help you build a clear set of operating rules so vendors deliver against your corporate goals — not theirs. From there, our team helps you evaluate the platforms and tools that offer the strongest ROI for your organization.

Our Supply Chain Management Consulting Services

Each component below represents a discipline where our supply chain management consultants bring focused expertise — and a clear set of best-practice rules your team can adopt and maintain.

Understand all of the demands on your supply chain

Effective planning starts with a complete picture of what’s pulling on your resources. No forecast is 100% accurate — but understanding the characteristics of demand lets you apply quantitative models, predict more reliably, and stay flexible when markets shift.

  • Aggregated demand planning through customer/product hierarchies and historical mix ratios
  • Balance of quantitative statistical models and qualitative human judgment
  • Defined customer and product segmentation models
  • Proactively identified customer requirements
  • Engineering change and NPI demand impact analysis

See every resource across your supply chain.

An enterprise-wide view of capacity and critical materials — sensitive to product mix — is what lets you constrain demand against real-world supply, not assumptions.

  • Bill of Routing models for all internal and external nodes across your supply chain network
  • Flexible capacity planning models
  • Material Requirements Planning (MRP)
  • Defined inventory management policies

Align demand and supply with clear, repeatable rules.

Defined planning cycles backed by a formal set of business rules align demand to supply against your business objectives and financial goals — every cycle, not just the easy ones.

  • Build/procure-to-forecast and build/procure-to-order models defined by product characteristics
  • Business rules that enable prioritized use of resources
  • Enterprise-level procure and build schedules across your full supply chain network
  • Integration with your Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) process
Supply Chain Order Management Consulting

Schedule orders with rules-based, supply-feasible promises.

When order scheduling pulls from a prioritized supply response, customers get reliable commit dates the first time — protecting both your margins and your reputation.

  • Prioritized Available to Promise (ATP)
  • Business rules for ATP consumption during order scheduling and re-scheduling
  • Integrated exception management and re-promise workflows
  • Early warning process
