For Tyler Glasser of Stranahan’s, problem solving and creative exploration are best begun with a holistic view, borne from perspectives gained working across the various roles within a distillery. Through his current role as plant operations administrator, he’s gained an appreciation for the part that planning, forecasting, and procurement play in enabling distillers and blenders to produce and construct great spirits, as creating products at the scale of Stranahan’s requires an integrated, cross-discipline push.
In this episode, host Molly Troupe and Glasser discuss:
- how planning and forecasting impact every aspect of the distillery
- the impact of procurement on the viability of distillers’ labors of love
- developing spirits that connect to place and shorten the supply chain
- managing stress and setting boundaries
- the impact of tariffs on an increasingly chaotic forecasting environment
- using digital tools and algorithms to plan production and inventory levels
- balancing production with market demand while managing capital expenditures
