Act as a trusted advisor throughout the implementation, using your supply chain expertise to provide practical recommendations and guidance.

Support the Sales team during the pre-sales process, bringing implementation and supply chain expertise to prospective customers.
Contribute to solution scoping, project estimates, proposals and implementation planning.
Participate in customer discussions and demonstrations where your subject matter expertise can add value.
Help ensure that proposed solutions are realistic, achievable and aligned with customer requirements.
