HOW WE PARTNER
WE’RE AN EXTENSION OF YOUR TEAM
We are not more software or consultants. Hydrian focuses on building an ongoing relationship by operating as an extension of your in-house team and engaging daily to help the business move toward targets established together using our insights capabilities and your intimate business knowledge.
WE ENHANCE YOUR TEAM’S EFFECTIVENESS

Instead, we provide deep expertise in the areas most companies are lacking: data science, analytics, supply chain management, and more. We grow your teams’ capabilities by removing hurdles to success and solving persistent inventory problems.
WE WORK WITH ANY SYSTEM
We work with your existing system and nothing gets replaced. Our main deliverable is a daily conversation, backed up with data, between your team and our experts. Your team is reviewing purchase orders and having live conversations – not toiling in isolation with yet another technical platform they had to be trained to use.

There are plenty of KPIs used to measure performance and we will work with you to identify the metrics that matter most to your business, like fill rate, inventory turns, and stockouts.
