Build Confidence in Your Inventory:
If you don't have it, You can't make it...
Inventory is the lifeblood of business. Whether it is direct, destined to be transformed into happiness for a waiting customer, or indirect, quietly keeping the company running smoothly.
Many companies focus on direct inventory overlooking the billions of dollars spent on indirect inventory. Catila Studios brings an enterprise mindset to both inventory paths. We focus on improving what matters to our clients.

"I worked with Colin on a multi-million dollar inventory reduction project that required an in-depth knowledge of SAP to resolve significant systemic issues. His initiative to not only understand the software as a CMMS system, but to provide training and education to end-users, allowed us to improve spare parts ordering, maintenance backlog and scheduling, and preventative maintenance procedures.
If you're seeking a consultant with quick technical skills and impressive people skills to match, I strongly recommend Colin to help you solve your problems and improve your business."
