About the founder

Claudia Garcia Roman — Founder

Claudia Garcia Roman holds a degree in Industrial Engineering (Universidad de Lima) and a Graduate Certificate in Supply Chain Management (Humber College, Toronto), with nine years of demand and supply planning experience, including roles at Samsung Electronics and Canadian Tire.

Her work spans several industries — consumer electronics, grocery retail, beauty and consumer goods — and several links of the supply chain, from manufacturing and regional distribution to retail forecasting. That range covers planning at different levels: SKU-level forecasting and replenishment, multi-country supply control, and planning leadership over large product portfolios.

Our approach

How we work with clients

1

Fractional

We deliver the work on a fractional basis — senior planning expertise without a full-time hire — remotely and on site.

2

Starts in the warehouse

For local clients, every engagement starts in the warehouse: the physical stock often explains what the reports do not show.

3

Decisions rest on numbers

Safety stocks and reorder points are calculated from measured demand and lead times, so inventory decisions rest on numbers.
