Supply chains that run in a straight line.
Straitline Supply Chain Advisory helps growing businesses cut landed costs, choose and manage the right logistics partners, and build supply chains that don't break when something goes wrong.
Founder-led
Vendor-neutral
No referral fees from carriers or 3PLs. Recommendations answer to your P&L, not a commission.
Built for growing businesses
Senior supply chain thinking, sized for companies that don't need — or want — a big-firm engagement.
Two ways we help
Every engagement starts from your numbers — what it actually costs to get your product to your customer — and ends with changes you can see on the invoice.
Advisory
Supply Chain Strategy & Advisory
Ongoing, senior-level guidance on how your goods move — from supplier to shelf — and what it costs.
- Network & flow design: where inventory should sit and how it should move
- Landed-cost and margin analysis by product and lane
- Inventory & demand planning fundamentals
- Sourcing and import strategy, including overseas suppliers
- Risk & resilience: backup routings, dual sourcing, disruption playbooks
Execution
3PL Selection & Management
Choosing a third-party logistics partner is a six-figure decision. We run it like one.
- Requirements definition and RFP build-out
- Shortlisting, site visits, and reference checks
- Rate benchmarking and contract negotiation
- SLA and KPI design so performance is measurable from day one
- Implementation and cutover management
- Ongoing vendor management and quarterly business reviews
A straight line from problem to result
No hundred-page decks. A short diagnostic, a costed plan, and hands-on delivery.
1
Diagnose
We map how product, information, and money actually move through your business, and where cost and risk hide. You get a clear baseline within the first weeks.
2
Design
A prioritized roadmap with costed options — what to change, what it saves, what it takes to do. You choose the path; every recommendation traces back to a number.
3
Deliver
We implement alongside your team and your vendors — negotiations, cutovers, new processes — and stay accountable for the result, not just the report.
About Straitline
Straitline Supply Chain Advisory is an independent, founder-led consultancy based in Vancouver, British Columbia. We work with owners and operators of growing product businesses — companies big enough for supply chain to be a real cost line, and small enough that nobody owns it full-time.
The name is the promise: the shortest defensible path between where you are and a supply chain that costs less and breaks less. No padded scopes, no deliverables written to justify a fee.
A small client roster by design — senior attention on every engagement, no junior teams, no hand-offs. We're independent and vendor-neutral, taking no referral fees or commissions from carriers, forwarders, or 3PLs, so when we recommend a partner it's because they're right for you.
