02 / ABOUT

I work where supply-chain decisions meet the systems that support them.

I'm Sunand Pal, a Supply Chain Consultant based in Dubai. My work sits between business teams, planning technology, and data—turning operational questions into solutions people can actually use.

I'm at my best when a problem crosses boundaries: a planning rule needs sharper logic, a dataset needs structure, or a process needs to make sense to both technical and commercial stakeholders.
