“Mark Twain said… “The two most important days in your life are the day you were born, and the day you find out why”

I’m Rob O’Byrne, and it took me a while to find the answer to that quote. But I found it.

As a Logistics Consultant, My Goal is To Help People Succeed

Business Results

Helping people boost Business results through improved Supply Chain performance. (management consulting)

Boost Careers

Helping boost careers with improved knowledge and confidence (education programs)

Those In Need

Helping those in need around the work through charity giving (proportion of revenue to charity)

Helping People and Businesses Achieve Better Outcomes

Rob’s main business Logistics Bureau, was originally just a specialist Supply Chain and Logistics consulting company, but has now expanded into a number of related companies. These companies cover Supply Chain Consulting, Benchmarking, Education for major corporations and also helping small businesses succeed through a Social Enterprise in the Philippines.

At the Logistics Bureau, our main business, our passion is helping organisations improve their performance with a focus on Logistics and Supply Chain. We have assisted organisations across most industry sectors.

We’re based in SE Asia and Australia, but conduct customer assignments all over the World. Currently we are up to well over 2,000 assignments conducted in 26 countries!

And do you know, that at the start of those 2,000 assignments, our customers generally had no idea of the magnitude of the hidden benefits waiting to be unlocked from their Supply Chains.

I have produced a series of books on Supply Chain. Look out for more titles this year under the series ‘Supply Chain Secrets Books‘, as well as a step by step guide for those wishing to learn more about Supply Chain. I am giving away the Supply Chain Strategy chapter of Supply Chain Secrets Book.

Often, fixing these issues ends up in the “too hard” basket. Addressing low-margin or loss-making customers and products requires cross-functional action, and that’s where the challenge begins. To make real changes, leadership—often at the CEO or MD level—needs to drive the process because these problems span multiple functions, from procurement to customer service. For example, low-margin products can raise debates about product ranges. If you drop one color, will it impact sales of another?…

This was a question I posed to 4 of my directors about 10 years ago at Logistics Bureau. Why? We all come from very different backgrounds, have different experiences and different goals personally. And I could see straight away the looks on their faces. There was no way on earth they thought we could possibly agree on our Why…
