The Ghost Workforce

150–200hrs/wk

of phantom manual work eliminated

The Force: Two-week operational audit across receiving, inventory, quoting, and expediting workflows. Access to ERP logs, Excel artifacts, and floor-level shadowing.
The Fulcrum: A ghost workforce of 150–200 hours of weekly rekeying, error correction, and tribal-knowledge processes invisible to HR and the P&L. Equivalent to 4–5 ghost FTEs.
The Lift: Built custom AI tools that automated the rekeying loops and compressed multi-hour Excel analyses to minutes. Ghost work eliminated. Real headcount redirected to customer work. Annual savings: 7-figure.
Stack: LLM-assisted analyzers · ERP automation · custom internal GPTs

Hose & coupling distribution · $80M revenue

$1M+

in cash freed while holding 98% availability

The Force: Inventory diagnostic using the sliding time-scale methodology. Analyzed 12 months of SKU-level demand, dead-stock aging, and supplier lead-time variance.
The Fulcrum: 25% of active SKUs were functionally dead stock hiding inside a 98% availability metric. Vanity number was funded by oversupply — the team was being rewarded for the wrong behavior.
The Lift: Dead-stock reduction of 60% over two quarters. $1M+ cash freed back into working capital. Availability held at 98%+ throughout — with less inventory. Inventory turns climbed to 8.5+.

Industrial distribution · $50M revenue

20%

annual supply-chain cost reduction

The Force: AI operations engagement scoped to supply-chain analytics and vending replenishment. Pulled real workflow data from sales, ops, and customer service teams.
The Fulcrum: Three to four hours of daily Excel analysis per analyst that should have taken minutes. The analytics team itself was an invisible payroll line — a ghost workforce running on spreadsheets and caffeine.
The Lift: Custom AI tools compressed daily analysis from hours to minutes. Freed analysts for higher-value work. Supply-chain and vending costs down 20% annually with no degradation to service levels.

branches centralized into one operating rhythm

The Force: Three-country operational consolidation across US, Mexico, and the Philippines. Legacy ERP, inconsistent processes, branch-level tribal methods.
The Fulcrum: Each country had optimized locally — and the seams between them were a leaking seam no one owned. Shadow reporting, duplicate inventory, and currency-timing losses hiding in the gaps.
The Lift: 40+ branches brought onto a single operational cadence. Dead stock reduced. Data governance standardized. Turnover in ops leadership dropped. Margins compounded over 3+ years.

annual account growth — $320K to $7M

The Force: Industrial vending program design and deployment across two manufacturing sites. Machine placement studied against line-level consumption; SKU strategy and replenishment cadence rebuilt around real usage rather than calendar reorder points.
The Fulcrum: The account had been a standard distributor relationship — priced, quoted, and fought over like every other line item. The lever wasn't the pricing; it was becoming operationally invisible to unseat by running the consumption rhythm itself.
The Lift: $320K annual spend grown to $7M annual across 25 AutoCrib/CribMaster machines over two sites. Twenty-two-times growth without a discount war. The program was instrumented from day one so the data came back clean — chargebacks, replenishment, usage, anomalies.
Stack: AutoCrib + CribMaster · ERP-integrated replenishment · consumption-driven SKU strategy · program governance
