What We Do
Operis Global is senior operating support for industrial, manufacturing, and automation companies, the kind of businesses where suppliers, engineering, manufacturing, logistics, customers, and cash all intersect. Engagements are focused, practical, and built to produce measurable results, not a binder of recommendations.
Where Operis Helps
-
Resilient sourcing decisions that hold up under tariff, trade, and supplier risk. Operis helps you evaluate country-of-origin exposure, build and strengthen supplier networks across North America, China, India, and Europe, and decide where to regionalize, reshore, or dual-source before cost or disruption forces the call. And when the decision is made, Operis moves from strategy to execution through hands-on Global Sourcing Execution.
-
This is the execution arm of sourcing strategy. Operis puts real people on the ground who can move immediately, visit the factory, walk the floor, inspect quality and process, vet the supplier in person, and stay on it through shipment and logistics. Sourcing components, materials, services, complete factories, or engineering outsourcing, the work runs on relationships built over decades and partners already known and trusted across China, India, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Mexico, Costa Rica, Bangladesh, Poland, Romania, Czechia, and other key regions. Not a cold search and not a report. Someone who can be there, see it firsthand, and drive it to a result - now.
-
For private equity operating teams and acquirers, Operis assesses operations, supply chain, and sourcing risk before the deal closes, then supports the integration that determines whether the thesis holds. Decades of acquisition and integration experience, applied to the operational realities behind the numbers.
-
When you need senior operations or supply chain leadership now, Operis can step in on an interim or fractional basis to stabilize, lead, and build, while you secure the right permanent hire or work through a critical stretch.
-
When throughput, quality, delivery, or cash are not where they need to be, Operis brings senior operating judgment to find the real constraint and improve execution. The focus is measurable performance, not theory.
-
The strongest automation returns are decided before the purchase order. Operis helps you confirm you are solving the right constraint, stabilize the process, model the full landed and installed cost, and define who owns the result, so capital goes to the projects that actually create value.
Who We Work With
Operis works with leaders who own operational outcomes: CEOs and COOs pushing for better throughput, quality, and delivery; CFOs and private equity operating partners evaluating or protecting an investment; and companies facing sourcing risk, a major automation decision, or a stretch without the senior leadership they need on the floor.
How Engagements Work
Most engagements start with a focused diagnostic, a short and structured look at the real constraint and the decision in front of you. From there, the work is scoped to the problem, whether that is a sourcing strategy, an investment readiness review, operational due diligence, a performance turnaround, or interim leadership. The goal at every step is traction you can measure.
Diagnose. Find the real constraint, not the obvious symptom.
Scope. Size the work to the problem and the decision timeline.
Execute. Drive to a measurable result and a clear owner.
Why Operis
Forty years across engineering, manufacturing, sourcing, industrial automation, and private equity-backed transformation, on the ground in North America, China, India, and Europe. You work directly with that experience, not a junior associate.
