ABOUT BLAKE GRIMSLEY

Over 18 years, I\'ve led enterprise strategy and transformation across 3PL, CPG, cold chain, and LTL environments — from Sysco and Americold to SAIA and growth-stage logistics operators. My work sits at the intersection of supply chain strategy, operational excellence, and commercial execution: I scope the problem, design the solution, build the model, and get it in front of the C-suite.Network design and capacity strategy (Llamasoft, Optilogic, scenario modeling) → Enterprise KPI governance and executive dashboards (Power BI, Tableau) → Cost-to-serve analysis and margin improvement programs → CRM/RevOps architecture and CPQ buildouts (HubSpot) → M&A scenario modeling and 3-year strategic planning → Cross-functional transformation — across commercial, ops, finance, and technology I\'ve influenced VP and C-suite decisions without direct authority at Fortune 500 clients and founder-led companies alike. I know how to translate ambiguous operational data into capital allocation recommendations that move. I\'m an AI-enabled operator. I actively deploy Claude AI and advanced prompt engineering to compress analysis cycles, accelerate scenario modeling, and produce executive-grade outputs faster than traditional approaches. Recent work includes designing a full enterprise operating system for a Savannah-based 3PL (AR remediation, HubSpot CPQ, data governance, CEO dashboard), leading supply chain solutions engagements for Fortune 500 CPG clients at Neovia, and building enterprise analytics infrastructure at SAIA across Linehaul, Fleet, and Sales. Director and Senior Manager roles in Supply Chain Strategy, Operational Excellence, and Enterprise Transformation — remote preferred or based in Savannah, GA.
