Domain · Areas of Expertise
Inventory parameters, distribution, analytics, and resilience - the four courses I teach in this space.
Organized by subject: Supply Chain Management, Logistics Management, Supply Chain Analytics, and Supply Chain Risk & Resilience. This domain is also anchored by a filed patent on how inventory parameters and management techniques affect supply chain performance.
Supply Chain Management
Core inventory-control calculations - when to order, how much, and what to prioritize.
Economic Order Quantity plus a demand-variability-based safety stock and reorder point.
Paste annual usage value per SKU (comma-separated) to classify items into A (top ~80% of value), B (next ~15%), and C (remaining ~5%) tiers.
Logistics Management
Landed cost and mode-selection decisions - where freight cost trades off against transit time and in-transit inventory carrying cost.
The true cost of a delivered unit, not just its purchase price.
Air costs more per unit but cuts in-transit carrying cost; sea is cheap but ties up capital longer. Compares total cost (freight + in-transit holding cost) across three modes.
Supply Chain Analytics
Turning historical demand data into a forecast, and checking whether orders are amplifying demand signal as they move upstream.
Paste historical period demand to get next-period forecasts from both methods, plus fit error (MAD).
Compares order variability to end-customer demand variability along the chain.
Supply Chain Risk & Resilience
Structured risk scoring and a resilience maturity check - the same probability×impact logic as FMEA, applied to the chain instead of a single process.
Rate a specific risk (single-source supplier, geopolitical, logistics disruption) on likelihood and impact.
Rate your chain 0 (absent) to 5 (mature) on four resilience pillars.
Case Study
Examines how inventory parameters and management techniques directly shape supply chain performance and customer satisfaction - framing inventory management as a core strategic lever, not a back-office function.
Focus: Inventory parameters, SCM performance
Combines ERP's modular business-data management with blockchain's secure multi-party transaction tracking - relevant to supply chain traceability and coordination across partners.
