C.M. Schaefer & Co.
Make it better. Make it stick.
Craig Schaefer
Principal
Helping companies build operating performance — and the people who deliver it.
Twenty-five years leading supply chain and operations at two Fortune 500 manufacturers, across strategic sourcing, materials planning, global logistics, and the development of the people who run them. The practice works where operating discipline meets organizational capability.
Practice areas
- Lean daily management. Structure, rigor, and a KPI hierarchy that actually cascades.
- Capability and talent development. Early-career and leader programs built to hold.
- Supplier stratification. Performance-based segmentation and preferred supplier programs.
- Logistics execution. Freight audit and post-audit, network and systems, warehouse and transport.
