Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolPavan Prakash is a Senior Supply Chain Planner based in the Dallas–Fort Worth area with 8+ years of experience applying analytics-driven operations improvements across retail, beverage, and manufacturing supply chains. He has led projects that delivered measurable gains—space utilization up 7%, pick accuracy up 15%, and productivity improvements via Kaizen and process redesign—while also implementing WMS/ERP go-lives and inventory visualization dashboards for hundreds of SKUs. Comfortable bridging data, operations and stakeholder communication, he blends statistical modeling and visualization with hands-on layout and AutoCAD redesigns to translate insights into floor-level change. Early career roles in procurement and industrial engineering honed his supplier management, cost analysis and ergonomics expertise, and a master’s in supply chain from UT Dallas underpins his analytical approach. Less obvious: he has contributed to embedded systems automation workflows on the SONiC build platform, showing a practical curiosity for system integration beyond traditional supply chain tooling.
