Independent, vendor-neutral advisors to industrial and distribution companies. We reengineer global logistics and supply chains and select the ERP, TMS and WMS to match — so operations run leaner and profit grows.
If freight and inventory costs are climbing, your ERP is aging, your network has outgrown its design, or a sponsor is pushing for value creation — that is exactly where we go to work.
Most firms sell you the box they already make. We are vendor-neutral: we diagnose honestly, quantify the return, recommend the right fix, then lead the change to completion.
Every engagement is scoped to the critical few changes that move EBITDA — from network strategy to system selection to the implementation itself.
We map your operation As-Is, design the To-Be ideal state, and rebuild it to best practice — sourcing, distribution, carrier strategy and the KPIs that keep it improving.
Vendor-neutral requirements, shortlisting and RFP. We run the interviews, scoring and MSA/SOW negotiation — then stay on as your advocate and project manager through go-live and adoption.
Global distribution assessment, warehouse network design, and transportation modeling that has cut transport costs 9–15% and pulled days of inventory out of the pipeline.
For PE and VC sponsors: order-to-cash and IT due diligence before the deal, and a credible operating plan with EBITDA and ROI cases for the value-creation period after it.
“Find the critical few changes that move profit — then lead the change to completion.”
Distribution network and business-process assessment to find where cost and risk really live.
Document today's reality, then design the ideal future state for process and systems.
Quantify the gap and the growth and EBITDA implications, with a clear ROI for every change.
Decide IT, process, or both — shortlist vendors, run the RFP, and negotiate the contract.
We lead the change as your advocate and PM, driving adoption, not just go-live.
Set best-practice KPIs so the new operation keeps getting better after we leave.
From sourcing to the customer's door, plus the systems and data that run it underneath. Real cost and EBITDA hide across the whole flow — so we work the logistics, the supply chain, and the technology together.
Independent and vendor-neutral, we redesign distribution networks and processes, then select and stand up the ERP, TMS and WMS that fit — driving optimized operations, EBITDA and net profit for industrial and distribution companies.
We help industrial and distribution companies put AI to work on real operations — and we're hands-on with the leading large language models. The stance is the operator's: AI is a multiplier, so we fix process and data first, then automate and predict.
Demand, inventory and transportation forecasting and scenario planning that sharpen decisions across the network.
Automate order-to-cash steps, exception handling, and document-heavy workflows — fewer manual touches, faster cycles.
LLM copilots grounded in your own data and SOPs, so teams find answers and make better calls in seconds, not hours.
Choose and govern AI tools the way we do ERP — independent and vendor-neutral, with guardrails for data and risk.
We publish practical thinking for operators and boards. One example below — a board-level brief on treating ERP as an operating-model decision. It's a single slice of a broader perspective that spans logistics, supply chain, and systems.
Why boards should treat ERP as an operating-model decision — not a software purchase.

Decades inside supply chain, logistics, manufacturing and distribution operations.
Successful ERP, TMS and WMS selections and implementations delivered globally.
Built a supply-chain practice at a major ERP vendor and implemented the leading systems — so we know how the deals really work.
From assessment and selection through implementation to post-go-live strategy and KPIs.
A former CPTO who migrated 250,000+ devices to the cloud — technology judged by what it does for operations.
Interactive Consulting Partners is led by Neil O'Connell, a supply chain and technology executive who has built, merged and modernized operations across logistics, manufacturing, medical device, retail and hi-tech.
The result is rare in advisory: counsel from someone who has actually carried the P&L, selected and implemented the systems, and lived with the consequences — applied directly to your cost, capital and EBITDA.
A short discovery call is the fastest way to see whether the answer is process, technology, or both — and what it's worth.
