“Grahame DINES, independent consultant, starts work at the ‘Define’ element of the AGTRIX Matrix, specifically the beginning of a supply chain, in order to fully understand objectives and mechanisms in place to achieve those objectives. His focus is on supply chains that involve perishable products ‘from farm to factory’ involving the integration of the 3 unit operations of a.gathering of perishable crops, b.subsequent transport, embracing the JIT principle, then linking c.factory processing strategies with that” Grahame has been involved with Agtrix since the mid-1990s and was instrumental in the development of several key software solutions including FREDD. Prior to that Grahame started work with CSR as an Industrial Chemist, progressing to Agricultural activities in 1972. At that time his exposure to road transport led to development of the first static computerised traffic plan aiming at maximising efficiencies. The rest is history. Grahame has worked extensively in Africa analysing road transport supply chains and facilitating ‘real time’ simulations leading to workable solutions. Guided by a valued mentor’s quote; ‘There is nothing more frustrating in life than to know the answer, but no-one asks you the question’ Grahame remains passionate about educating people to integrate elements of any supply chain, leading to substantial holistic efficiency gains.
