Consultant

Charles has been working in the area of refinery and petrochemical supply chain software for the last 34 years. Charles and Basil Joffe were the developers of PIMS, first released in 1985 when the term “disruptive technology” didn’t exist, but that is what PIMS did by being the first planning system on a PC using Lotus123. The PIMS business was sold to AspenTech in 1997 where Charles became responsible for developing the industry’s first integrated petroleum supply chain solution. Later, Charles and Basil both left AspenTech to join Spiral (now AVEVA) to assist in developing the next generation of supply chain management tools. During his career, Charles has worked with many companies around the world, helping them improve their business practices in supply chain management. His current role includes working with our clients worldwide in helping them transition and realize benefits from unified Supply Chain.
