Independent consultancy for operators who need a working system, not a sales pitch. Thirty years designing distribution centres, materials handling, and freight operations across Australia — from greenfield slab to live optimisation.
Three engagement types. Each is scoped flat-rate up front — no surprise variations, no vendor kickbacks, no equipment commissions.
Greenfield slab to storage concept, or brownfield retrofit of an existing facility. Racking, flow, dock layout, materials handling specification, compliance — all delivered in drawings your builder and fit-out contractors can actually build from.
Short, focused engagements for operators who know something's wrong but not what. Desktop review of your layout, slotting and throughput data — ending in a ranked action list with costs, timelines and expected return, not a 40-page deck.
Client-side project management for owners who don't want to run a warehouse build or retrofit in-house. Vendor scoping, tender management, commissioning support, handover documentation — all from a consultant who has no stake in who gets picked.
DockIQ is a free ten-question diagnostic for warehouse and DC operators. Answer in plain language about your fill, volume, pick rates and pain points — get back a traffic-light read on whether your next dollar is best spent on process, layout, or more space. No login. No sales call unless you want one.
Most operators don't need a six-month consulting engagement. They need someone with thirty years of scar tissue to look at their site, tell them what's actually going wrong, and hand them a decision they can action. That's how these projects run.
A focused call. You walk me through the site, I ask a lot of questions, we decide together whether a diagnostic or a design engagement is the right next step. No pitch deck, no follow-up harassment.
A one-page scope. What I'll look at, what you'll get, when, and how much. Flat price, so you know what it costs before you say yes.
Most diagnostics land in 10 business days. Design packages in 3 to 8 weeks depending on scope. I work remote where I can, on-site where I must.
Ranked, costed, sequenced. No 60-slide deck. If you want me to project manage the delivery, that's a separate engagement — and only if you want it.
Concept and schematic design for a 40,000m² regional distribution centre, including racking, dock and MHE specification, and FM Global fire protection compliance.
Layout and slotting review for a 3PL whose pick rate had fallen 22% in 18 months. Identified three flow cross-overs and a velocity mismatch; new slotting plan recovered the gap in six weeks.
Ten years in airport logistics — baggage handling, cargo facilities, and landside freight operations — across three Australian capital airports. Systems engineering and vendor management.
Curated knowledge base of 2,130 DC design standards, drawings and reference documents across seven site codes. Used internally and by clients during design and review.
Thirty-minute call, no pitch, no obligation. Bring your pain points, your floor plan, or just your frustration — I'll give you an honest read on whether I'm the right person to help, and if I'm not, I'll usually know who is.
