In the news
- Your value chain is like an orchestra. Every department is a musician. Demand, supply, DC, transport, stores, ... Each a professional, each playing their part flawlessly, each hitting every note their own music score demands. But an orchestra without a conductor isn't a symphony. Without a conductor, nobody is in charge of the whole piece. Nobody sees how a decision in one section influences all the others. A promotion lifts demand. Sales sees growth. But behind the scenes, the warehouse scrambles to pick more, and stores risk empty
- Margin is lost. But maybe not where you think it is. To stay manageable, every retailer splits into departments: demand, supply, DC, transport, and stores. Each gets its own KPI and its own rules. The problem is that hitting one department's number often creates cost somewhere else in the chain, where it is harder to see and no longer anyone's responsibility. Think about stronger promotion sales vs supply chain cost: Aggressive discounts drive volume and traffic. But the DC gets overloaded, transport costs spike, and stockouts
- That's not just our estimate. It's what companies that move or make goods are already leaving on the table according to BCG. Not from inefficiency, but from thousands of small decisions made department by department instead of end to end: what to replenish, allocate, pick, load and ship today versus tomorrow. Each decision made without seeing the full picture. We call that the Orchestration Gap. That’s exactly what Superlinear fixes: we build Holon, an Enterprise Orchestration Platform that models your entire operation and
- It started with a PhD in combinatorial optimization, and a passion for robust and high-performance software. Jeroen Gardeyn spent his research years solving nesting problems: thousands of possible combinations, one good solution, found fast. Leather cutting. Clothing patterns. Boat components. Pure algorithmic thinking applied to physical constraints. He left academia before it became comfortable. He was already using AI when most people were still skeptical. He writes Rust because fragile software isn't acceptable to him. He
