“Collaboration across the chain. Smart supply chains. IT that supports.”
I help organisations improve processes, supply chains and ERP/WMS solutions as one whole. Practical, independent and focused on lasting results.

Most problems arise at the handovers between organisations
Supply chains are becoming ever more complex. Companies depend on suppliers, customers, logistics service providers and IT systems. Supply Chain Meneer helps organisations make processes, collaboration and IT work as one whole again.
…is where I start
- Many consultants look at processes.
- IT partners look at systems.
- Supply Chain Meneer looks at the entire chain.
From supplier to customer. From process to ERP. From collaboration to results.
From internal awareness to control of the chain
Many organisations want to improve collaboration in their supply chain but don't quite know where to start. Often, though, the key lies not outside the organisation but within it.
That is why I work to a clear approach: from awareness on the shop floor to control of the entire chain. Every step is concrete, recognisable and immediately applicable. No thick reports, but movement within the organisation.
Curious how you can get more grip on your chain?
Collaboration only succeeds when it works in practice
Supply Chain Meneer helps growing organisations that collaborate across the chain but are not yet getting the most out of it. I make sure it works — in a planned way, from the brand owner's perspective, and with hands-on execution if needed.
In many chains things go wrong because of noise, poor communication or unclear expectations. Together we break that pattern. Not as a traditional consultancy, but as an independent orchestrator of supply chain collaboration.
With the Perfect Product Concept (PPC) we make expectations concrete: all hard and soft requirements, technical and commercial starting points in one place. The result is a shared plan that can actually be carried out.
Collaboration is the key to improvement across the chain
