About Oscar Martinez

I lead supply chain design and optimization programs that help executives make confident decisions across cost, service, resilience, and working capital. My work sits at the intersection of strategy, operations, and advanced analytics—translating complex supply chain networks into decision-grade models and clear, actionable recommendations.Over 15+ years across consulting and industry, I’ve built and governed large-scale capabilities in network design, inventory optimization (multi-echelon), capacity planning, and discrete-event simulation across life sciences, consumer goods, industrials, and services. I’ve also developed cost-to-serve frameworks that incorporate tariff impacts and evolving global trade conditions, enabling leaders to quantify trade-offs and prioritize the right moves.Areas of focus:• Supply chain network design & optimization (cost/service/resilience trade-offs)• Cost-to-serve (including tariffs), scenario planning, and executive decision support• Inventory optimization and working-capital improvement using Coupa Supply Chain Guru• Simulation-based benchmarking to validate policies and stress-test decisions• Modeling governance, standards, training, and scaling supply chain design capabilityI enjoy partnering with cross-functional leaders to structure ambiguous problems, align stakeholders, and build scalable decision-support capabilities that persist beyond a single project.
