About Nomer Yuson

I’m an APICS CSCP–certified senior supply chain and manufacturing planning leader with 21+ years of experience building and scaling planning functions across materials, production, capacity, and supplier planning. I’ve led teams through growth, complexity, and change, with a strong focus on S & OP, system implementation, and disciplined decision-making in manufacturing environments.I bring hands-on leadership experience in SAP, driving planning standardization, improving service levels, and aligning demand, supply, and capacity to overall business strategy. I’m most effective in roles that require clarity, structure, and strong cross-functional collaboration.Outside of work, I play Texas Hold’em poker, which closely mirrors how I approach leadership and planning. Not every decision comes with perfect information. The goal isn’t certainty. It’s making the best possible decision with the data available, understanding risk, and thinking several moves ahead. That mindset carries directly into S & OP, capacity trade-offs, and long-term planning decisions.I’m passionate about developing strong planning teams, building scalable processes, and helping manufacturing organizations make better, faster, and more resilient decisions.
