Strategic Operations
Strategic Operations
Operational clarity for businesses that need inventory, systems, and channels to run as one—so decisions stay commercial and delivery stays controlled.
When growth shows up as more SKUs, more channels, more partners, and tighter timelines, “good enough” operations start leaking margin. FiveNineFive brings senior ownership to the operational layer—stock logic, forecasting cadence, system workflows, and cross-channel alignment—so scale doesn’t create chaos.
Who This Is For
Strategic Operations is for teams that have product moving (or about to move) and need the operating model to catch up.
Typical signals it’s time:
You’re carrying stock but don’t fully trust what’s available, where it is, or what should move next
Online, live/event, wholesale and partner channels aren’t operating from the same truth
Forecasting is reactive (and allocation decisions feel like guesswork)
3PL performance and handovers aren’t predictable
Margin is under pressure and you need cleaner commercial guardrails
What You Get (Outcomes)
Stock visibility you can act on: clearer inventory position, allocation logic, and reporting cadence
Commercial discipline: pricing/margin guardrails and decision-making that protects profit
Connected execution across channels: workflows that reduce friction between e-commerce, retail/live, wholesale, and partners
Less operational noise: fewer surprises, fewer urgent fixes, more predictable delivery
What’s Included
International Procurement & Compliance:
Managing end-to-end supply chains for overseas brands, including freight logistics, customs navigation, and ensuring local regulatory alignment for Australian market entry
Systems & Inventory
Stock logic, POS/IMS workflows, and operational routines designed to keep inventory visible, allocatable, and commercially controlled.
Common platforms: Shopify, WIX, WooCommerce, Lightspeed, Cin7 (incl. Dear), Vend, Square, Xero, MYOB, and 3PL portals.
Forecasting & Allocation Rhythm
A practical forecasting cadence that supports range decisions, buy quantities, and channel allocation—without overcomplicating the business.
3PL & Partner Alignment
Service levels, SOPs, handovers, and operating cadence—so fulfilment is predictable, and performance can be managed, not guessed.
Go-to-Market Readiness
Ensuring launches don’t disrupt operations: channel readiness, stock positioning, workflow alignment, and “who owns what” clarity before go-live.
Commercial Planning & Guardrails
Targets, pricing and margin guardrails, expense awareness, and reporting structure—so decisions remain commercial as volume grows.
