20 years in Global Supply Chain Leadership

Your consulting project was doomed before it even started

Too harsh? Maybe.
But here’s what I keep seeing:
Vague goals
Wishy-washy briefings
Opinions instead of facts
No plan, no movement
Meanwhile, the real problems persist:
Consultants get hired. Workshops happen.
Slide decks are built.

And a few weeks later? Everyone’s already moved on – while the issues persist:
Supply issues
Quality problems
Production hiccups
Missed customer expectations
It doesn’t have to be this way
What if your next consulting project started with clarity?

Clarity for parameters, status quo and next steps.
Clear facts
A shared understanding of the situation
A focused plan of attack.
That’s what Ultreia delivers.

Not just for you — for me, too.
Because it helps me understand your operations before even proposing a full project.

You get results. I get context.

Everyone makes better decisions.
No pressure. Just clarity.
Free and non-binding.
Ultreia isn’t a vague strategy deck or a glorified discovery call.

It’s a one-week format that gives you structure, speed, and a practical path forward.

How it works: clear, fast, and built around you

No generic diagnostics.
No consultants disappearing for weeks and coming back with a 100-page deck.
With Ultreia, you stay involved — and in control.
We move fast, think smart, and work hands-on.

From uncertainty to clarity in three moves

1

Kickoff callGaining clarity on the process

What we do
A short video call to align on what matters most.
I ask the questions that uncover where to dig.
Together, we decide:
– Is a workshop the right next step?
– Who needs to be at the table?
– What date works best for all?
What You get
Clarity on whether a workshop makes sense.
A shared understanding of scope and goals.
A scheduled next step – or a confident no-go.

Ultreia WorkshopA structured deep-dive into your reality

What we do
Half a day. On site.
Structured, focused, and fast-paced.
We dig into your reality: processes, friction points, decision gaps.
No guesswork required.
What You get
A clear picture of where the problems really lie.
Team alignment – everyone in the same room, on the same page.
Real momentum from day one.
Note: Workshop pricing covers travel within a reasonable range.
For long-distance engagements, we’ll clarify costs upfront — no surprises.

Your Custom Game PlanA solid foundation for the next steps

What we do
Within a week after the workshop, you’ll receive your full results:
– SWOT analysis of your current situation
– Clear fields of action
– Prioritized, pragmatic recommendations
– Suggested next steps
What You get
A practical plan you can act on.
The option to move forward – with or without me.
No strings attached.

One workshop, one week, full clarity.

Every project starts with a first step

Ultreia helps you take it in the right direction — with expert guidance and a clear price tag.

You choose the scope — I’ll make sure you move forward with clarity.

Find the right starting point for your journey

Each package is based on the number and complexity of core business functions involved where I bring the most value:
Procurement, Logistics, and Shopfloor Operations.

Not sure which fits? We’ll figure it out together in the kickoff call.

Clarity now saves cost, time, and frustration later.
Ultreia helps you cut through the noise.
And start fixing what really matters.

Proven results. Real-world experience.

Ultreia is a fresh format, but I’ve been solving operational headaches in Procurement, Logistics, and Production for 20 years.

I’ve worked with:
SMEs and global players,
In Germany and abroad,
As an internal leader and external consultant.

Across all these environments, one insight has stuck:
It’s not the big strategy slides that make the difference.
It’s structured thinking, clear priorities, and practical execution.

That’s exactly what Ultreia delivers.This format distills everything I’ve learned into one powerful starting point.
