“We thoroughly explore the core of business design of our customers and provide them with tailor-made executive development solutions.”
The demand for talent that possesses a deep understanding of supply chain management and core competencies is being felt more and more, post-COVID as well as due to rapid economic recovery across India and the globe. Recognising this need, Jayam SCM Consultants has emerged as one of the focused organisations, specialising in custom-designed & curated executive development.
“We comprehensively assess the technological needs of businesses from a supply chain perspective, and also from the basic fundamentals in terms of the core competencies. We delve into the very essence of the business design of our clients and offer them curated executive development,” says Bala A Kumar (Bala) Director of Jayam SCM Consultants. Bala drives Executive & Talent development for Jayam SCM. He has held many leadership and MD roles in large corporates in India and abroad.
Over the past two years, the firm has delivered substantial success to its customers. Their forte lies in delivering curated executive development that entails a deep engagement with organisations. “During the preliminary engagements, we thoroughly assess their current requirements across various functional areas, with a particular focus on the entirety of the supply chain, digitalization of the supply chain, sustainability of the supply chain, security of the supply chain and providing future-proofing as well to bring out exponential value addition” adds Dr Rajaram Venkataraman, another Director of Jayam SCM Consultants. Dr Rajaram Venkataraman who leads Technology at Jayam SCM is a well-known personality in the software and technological forums in India & abroad.
The strength of Jayam SCM Consultants, as Bala aptly puts it, “We don’t overdo it, we simplify it and present it in a very interactive way which is customised by us to suit a particular company.” We internally discuss/iterate quite a lot, develop a design basis, and customise it to every Executive/talent-building opportunity before rolling it out to the customer.
“Our Founder Director Jay as we call him always believes every organisation, be it small, mid-size or big, has a unique DNA. There can’t be a single fit for all. Therefore, Jayam SCM always follows a unique approach for each and every organisation it facilitates,” says Bala. “We first evaluate the current needle on tools processes and technologies by doing an “As is Where is”, go back to the stakeholders with a recommendation list of actionable items, cherry-pick, prioritise, consult, implement alongside handhold & train to put the organisation on an exponential orbit of growth. So, also in consultancy and transformation, we ensure that our recommendations are aligned with overall supply chain & business strategies carefully implemented with our multi-fold hand holding by Jayam SCM experts to bring out growth, competitiveness & excellence.”
In such a short span of time, Jayam SCM has earned the name for its innovative and hands-on approach to Consulting, Training, and Knowledge Sharing with Businesses irrespective of size, type and nature.
