Most growing companies face the same operational paradox: they need executive-level operations expertise to scale efficiently, but they can't justify the $150K+ cost of a full-time Chief Operations Officer. The result? Chaos. Reactive firefighting. Money leaking through inefficient processes. Teams working hard but without strategic direction.
Netline Solutions was founded to solve this gap. By offering fractional operations leadership, we give growing businesses access to the strategic expertise they need—without the overhead they can't afford.
Our approach is simple: apply proven methodologies (Lean, Six Sigma, supply chain optimization) to real-world operations challenges. No theoretical consulting reports that sit on shelves. Just hands-on implementation that delivers measurable results.
Netline Solutions is led by a certified operations professional with over a decade of experience across manufacturing, supply chain, and process improvement. We bring a systems-driven, data-backed approach to stabilizing operations and driving measurable performance gains.
Representative examples from hands-on leadership roles and operational improvement initiatives. Specific results vary by business context.
✓ Reduced inventory and work-in-process by redesigning demand planning, stocking strategy, and S&OP discipline—freeing working capital and improving cash predictability.
✓ Improved payables performance by aligning purchasing cadence, supplier terms, and volume commitments with cash objectives.
✓ Established and maintained a structured I4I (Ideas for Improvement) system to ensure operational initiatives translated into measurable financial impact.
✓ Improved OTIF performance and reduced missed shipments by correcting forecast assumptions, aligning schedules to real capacity, and stabilizing material availability.
✓ Increased schedule adherence and ATP accuracy by aligning production and purchasing with realistic lead times and capacity constraints.
✓ Shifted teams from reactive firefighting to repeatable execution by introducing clear priorities, standard routines, and practical problem-solving methods.
✓ Enabled new product launches, engineering changes, and SKU expansion without service disruption, including complex BOM changes and inter-plant transfers.
✓ Absorbed volume growth while reducing planning effort by automating manual processes and redesigning daily execution workflows.
✓ Led ongoing capacity and volume planning to identify bottlenecks early and support growth decisions with data, not guesswork.
✓ Supported ERP stabilization and optimization efforts, partnering with IT to resolve issues and improve day-to-day usability.
✓ Designed KPI frameworks and operating rhythms (daily, weekly, monthly) that aligned teams and reinforced accountability.
✓ Stepped into interim leadership roles during transitions, maintaining continuity across purchasing, logistics, and operations execution.
