Attitude All too often supply chain decision making is based on poorly founded gut feel using rules of thumb or custom and practice – we've demonstrated that such decision making can be done scientifically and more effectively.     Rigour and objectivity Our belief is that the nitty-gritty of the numbers is where the right answer lies – we promise to combine analysis of these numbers with a knowledge of how supply chains can and do operate elsewhere and communicate it to the Board in a way that enables informed decision making.     Our People Our talent pool is selected from the best, supply chain brains from across the UK and Europe. Our entry criteria for consultants include: • Have delivered in senior line roles within industry and commerce • Have exemplary references from a major respected consultancy where they have worked • A proven ability to work as an individual independent consultant • Excellent client references and referrals as testimony to their reputation and skills • Excellent academic qualifications, ideally with a top-school MBA.     Commercially pragmatic solutions Their background ensures that Tamarack consultants are savvy to the difference between what's achievable but stretching to implement and what looks elegant on a slide but is unlikely to be delivered – we therefore commit to delivering measurable solutions.     Structure A senior team combined with a wide talent pool of independent consultants, – all selected and vetted, who work only to the highest standards you'd expect from a top consultancy.     Resource Flexibility We’re therefore equally happy assembling a full time cross-functional team as we are a part time consultant with specific skills. We also offer clients a real choice of talented and qualified individuals before projects commence. Our structure allows us to focus on the provision of quality services without a need to recover huge overheads or to utilise armies of junior staff.                     James Warner   John Sewell   Sam Smale   Guy Brammer   Jon Nicholas   Max Crane-Robinson   Paul Cook
