Vinodh Balaji Raguram

International Supply Chain & Procurement Consulting

Services provided across Europe

I work with companies on the practical side of supply chain and procurement: where material is sourced, how reliably it arrives, what it costs, and whether the planning process behind it can be trusted.

Engagements usually start with a specific pressure point — a supplier that isn't performing, inventory that keeps growing, a plan that changes every week — and widen into the process and system logic underneath it. I work hands-on, document what is decided, and leave a routine the team can maintain without me.

Clients are supported across Europe, including companies sourcing internationally and international suppliers looking to access European buyers.
