SGS-Maine Pointe, Starboard Solutions Partner to Help Customers Respond to Supply Chain Disruption

SGS-Maine Pointe, Starboard Solutions Partner to Help Customers Respond to Supply Chain Disruption
May 3, 2022

Boston, Mass., May 4, 2022 -- Global supply chain and operations implementation consulting firm, SGS-Maine Pointe, a member of the SGS Group, announced today it has partnered with Starboard Solutions Corp., the company revolutionizing the Supply Chain Design market. Using Starboard's Supply Chain Design software platform, SGS-Maine Pointe's consultants will be able to build on their proven, ROI-driven expertise and Total Value Optimization™ (TVO) approach with supply chain network design tools to help their customers rapidly unlock areas of value in their supply chain configurations.

SGS-Maine Pointe's supply chain optimization experts have a wealth of experience working with clients, with supply chain and operations implementation delivery teams driving actionable, measurable outcomes across the end-to-end supply chain. Starboard will prove a formidable addition to SGS-Maine Pointe’s Industry 4.0-based model of a digital supply chain with customer value at the center. This partnership will provide a strategic advantage for clients as SGS-Maine Pointe continues to provide actionable insights and deliver innovative solutions to transform the supply chain into a competitive weapon.

The complexity of today’s global supply chains and increased volatility creates a unique challenge for corporate executives. SGS-Maine Pointe’s supply chain optimization and strategy experience, combined with the power of Starboard’s next-generation supply chain design software, allows us to respond faster to our client’s supply chain questions.

“We have experience with many different software packages and have seen the disconnect between their modeling processes and how the cross functional teams want to design their supply chains,” said Nathanael Powrie, EVP Data Analytics at SGS-Maine Pointe. “Starboard gives us the quantitatively perfect answer by creating a visually interactive supply chain digital twin with real time scenario planning. That way we can balance our clients' questions and not have to miss a decision-making window by engaging in a data quest.”
The supply chain challenges that have occurred over the last few years will persist, and these concerns will weigh in on new supply chain strategies and investments as companies look for ways to restore agility and resiliency, and reduce risk going forward. More companies are re-examining their supply chain and sourcing decisions, and a new technological framework calls for a solution that closes the gap between logistics data and decision-making and a streamlined model with support for real-time access.

"We are thrilled to welcome SGS-Maine Pointe to our rapidly expanding partner program," said Steve Johanson, Founder and President of Starboard. "At Starboard, we foster relationships built on reciprocity and by collaborating with businesses like SGS-Maine Pointe, our technology can help their clients make better network decisions faster and therefore realize cost savings and service improvements faster."

Data analytics capability is foundational to SGS-Maine Pointe's TVO approach. The powerful combination of Starboard products and Maine Pointe's deep industry and subject-matter expertise will provide clients with a single workflow for data blending, modeling and reporting, delivering the insights to identify, track, measure and report on end-to-end supply chain improvements and move up the Total Value Optimization Pyramid™ and data analytics maturity levels, allowing them to transform from a reactive operation, to being forward-looking and innovative, continually improving the supply chain, and creating a differentiated on-demand customer experience.

SGS-Maine Pointe’s TVO strategy has consistently been acknowledge by clients and throughout the industry, and every year, SGS-Maine Pointe’s outstanding performance is highlighted by some of the industry’s top awards. Most recently, SGS-Maine Pointe was recognized by Consulting.US as the number one supply chain consulting firm in the US, as well as by Forbes as one of America’s best management consulting firms for the third successive year.
