Defining Service Supply Chain

Sam knows supply chain, having been in the industry for more than 20 years in various roles. Now, his passion — it’s an obsession, really — focuses on bringing service supply chain to the forefront for businesses of all sizes.

“I know what it’s like to be on the frontlines, seeking service-delivery nirvana, anywhere, anytime in some of the most challenging countries in the world. It’s from that perspective that I crafted our mission to provide seamless operations with outstanding operational performance, wrapping ourselves around every customer to create consistency, predictability and visibility in all that we do,” Sam says.

He knows how to drive performance that directly contributes to revenue acceleration, profitability growth and customer satisfaction. To accomplish those goals, Sam and the Flash team are migrating from a transactional mindset to a solutions-based approach.

“Flash is helping customers see across the service supply chain to form a cohesive strategy that drives strategic value. The key is understanding our customers’ challenges/opportunities and then proactively leveraging innovation and technology to create and ultimately deliver service solutions that work,” Sam said.
