Problems We Help Clarify
When the operation is busy, but performance is hard to see
We help leadership find the operational issues that deserve attention first, quantify their impact where the data permits, and build a realistic path forward.
Warehouse flow breaks down
Receiving, putaway, picking, replenishment, or staging creates recurring delays.
KPIs do not guide decisions
Leadership has reports, but lacks a focused scorecard that shows what is improving or declining.
Tribal knowledge drives work
Critical processes depend on individual experience instead of clear, usable procedures.
Capacity feels constrained
Space, labor, material flow, or scheduling limits output, but the root cause is unclear.
Data is available but unused
The team has operational data but lacks the time or structure to turn it into action.
Fixed-Scope Entry Assessments

Each assessment has a defined scope, required-data list, timeline, deliverables, and fixed fee before work begins.

Inventory Carrying Cost Calculator
Estimate the annual cost of holding inventory using an all-in carrying-cost rate.
About this estimate: The carrying-cost rate is intended to represent the total annual cost of holding inventory, including capital, storage, handling, insurance, taxes, shrinkage, and obsolescence. The 25% default is a general planning assumption. Replace it with your organization's all-in rate when available; do not add these costs separately.
Estimated annual carrying cost$500,000
This directional result is a planning estimate, not a substitute for a detailed inventory analysis.

Our Approach
Practical analysis, not generic recommendations
The goal is not to produce a longer report. It is to make the operational problem clearer, show which opportunities matter, and create a plan the organization can actually use.
Use the operation's own dataRecommendations are grounded in the client's processes, constraints, and information.
Quantify impact where possibleFinancial and operational estimates are clearly labeled and tied to available data.
Prioritize effort and valueQuick wins and longer-term improvements are separated so the team knows where to start.
Remain independentWe do not sell software, freight capacity, or equipment, so the analysis is focused on fit.
Independent Regional Decision Support
Considering the Gainesville Inland Port?
If your company has received a rail proposal—or an over-the-road carrier has countered with new pricing—we provide an independent, data-driven second opinion.
The review looks beyond the quoted freight rate to determine how each option could affect your total supply chain operation. We do not sell freight capacity or represent a railroad or carrier, so the recommendation is based on operational and financial fit.

Peach State Logistics & Consulting was founded to bring practical supply chain operations support to manufacturers and distributors that need clear analysis without the cost and complexity of a national consulting firm.

Based in Hall County, Georgia, we serve Northeast Georgia organizations and support appropriate projects remotely.
