Tim Gray Supply Chain Solutions Expert

Managing Director at Prophit Systems Pty Ltd

Sydney, Australia

Hi Tim Gray here, founder of Prophit Systems Pty Ltd, expert supply chain business tools & solutions which make complex supply chains simple.

Businesses spend literally millions of dollars annually on ineffectual systems. In Australia alone around $3.5 billion is spent each year on ERP licences, upgrades & migrations. Despite the costs these systems still fail to deliver results. Why? Because they don't feature:

? RAPID ANALYSIS; by exception identify pending supply chain problems BEFORE they bite!

? VISUALISATION; simple & effective business tools equals transparency across the Supply Chain

? KPI'S; quantifying business insights by showing the true costs of the problems & opportunities.

I work with business owners & senior managers to rapidly pinpoint complex supply chain process problems and solve them. I do this by quickly assessing the critical drivers in your supply chain and find & focus on the areas that will return the highest impact.

To date I have delivered an average ROI of 418% across 78 clients.

Having run 12 manufacturing & distribution companies, I was well aware that the right information & business process is key to shifting decision making from reactive to agile & opportunistic. Similarly the idea of purely relying on historic information to navigate your business decision making is a bit like driving a car by continuously looking in the rear vision mirror. The best way to be agile is to be able to see into your future.

I realised 3 common issues existed. The ability to:

1. See the problems in the supply chain early & react before customers are affected.

2. See how big the problem is so resources can be prioritised accordingly.

3. See & compare alternatives to reach consensus about corrective actions.

During The 2017 Supply Chain Insights “Imagine Supply Chain 2030 Global Summit”
I found myself surprised and confused by a topic I felt I had a strong handle on. Having sponsored my own company’s R&D efforts in blockchain I thought I have a deep and clear understanding of how this technology would mature and become demanded by our client’s clients.

Impact of Additive Manufacturing
linkedin
October 04, 2017
At the Lora Cecere's Supply Chain Global Submit 2017, the session on Additive Manufacturing had particularly grasped my attention. I don’t think anybody questions the fact that 3D printing has done and continues to do amazing things. The questions being asked now are about how we can continue to push the possibilities forward. Additive Manufacturing and Material Science are maturing very rapidly, and will transform the manufacturing industry.

Avoid Data Analytics Disconnect

“In God we trust, all others must bring data” – W. Edwards Deming...
One of the things that struck me during the Imagine the Supply Chain of 2030 Global Summit was the disconnect between the technology focus of the vendors who were spruiking the far-reaching implications of their transformative technologies and how this differed from the war stories shared by the business practitioners. Listening to the practitioners tell of their improvement journeys I heard a repeated message of the need to invest in a robust well focused teams with clearly defined processes.
