The company predominantly works with businesses across North America and Europe, supported by an emerging operational footprint in Latin America and Asia.
As supply chain market innovators, Nulogy’s 200+ employees primarily reside in R&D and product development, helping a diverse range of clients.
“We were born out of the supply chain base for very large, fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) brand suppliers,” Barnhart adds.
Since then, the company has developed five core solutions within its main platform.
Firstly, Nulogy’s legacy product, sold on the shop floor, allows contract packagers and manufacturers to schedule production processes, manage labor, provide block code and batch traceability, and maintain quality, alongside many other elements that would be expected in production.
The company additionally offers its Supplier Collaboration Solution, a complementary product predominantly sold to large supplier organizations and their customers.
“This allows us to create what I call virtual vertical integration. Many big brands are equipped with great tools to manage their own supply chain, but as they go into the supply base, they lose visibility.
“Therefore, our Supplier Collaboration Solution helps build not just the integration needed but the business processes required within the context of external manufacturing,” she explains.
Nulogy’s Smart Factory Solution was also launched at the beginning of 2025, which focuses on making facilities more efficient, effective, and productive through machine monitoring, production tracking, and overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) improvement capabilities.
Elsewhere, the Connect Solution,
which is utilized across all its products, enables the company to use powerful low and no-code integrations, electronic data interchange (EDI) integrations, and application programming interfaces (API) integrations.
“This solution also allows us to provide custom workflows and build notifications. Therefore, it’s a really great complementary solution that lowers the cost of implementation across our platforms,” Barnhart expands.
Finally, Nulogy’s Data Solution captures all the data developed within its platforms and was developed in conjunction with Snowflake – a leading cloud-based data storage organization that provides a platform to make the solution accessible to customers.
Nulogy exports data into the Snowflake platform so customers can marry data with their own requirements, whether it be warehouse management systems, enterprise resource planning (ERP), or advanced planning.
“The Data Solution gives customers a lot more of a holistic view of what’s happening, not just within their facilities but their suppliers’ facilities as well.”
PURPOSE-BUILT FOR VALUE
Nulogy is distinguished by its cuttingedge solutions that are purpose-built for the external supply chain and developed using the company’s 20+ years of experience in solving problems in this space.
“Purpose-built refers to the fact that we started the business with the question of how we solve supply chain challenges,” emphasizes Barnhart.
Indeed, Nulogy set out to support supply chain operators working with a vast range of brands, each with different processes and requirements. On top of this, the company recognized that the depths of relationships may also differ for each customer.
The Smart Factory Solution aptly demonstrates how solutions can be deployed efficiently and quickly. It is also incredibly scalable, allowing users to implement additional capabilities as the operation matures.
The solution is also horizontally applicable, meaning that a vast range of manufacturers can benefit from having better visibility of what’s happening at every level.
“Companies can often lose a lot of time during the manufacturing process, which can have a depreciable impact on their capacity. You want these assets to run at peak performance, because if they are not running, companies are not making money.
A CRITICAL LINK IN THE CHAIN
Nulogy’s staff base is an integral component of the company’s success. Therefore, it regularly rewards employees who go above and beyond in demonstrating Nulogy’s values.
“If you’re not good to the people that work for you and with you, you’re not going to be successful or go very far in my opinion,” Barnhart reflects.
Moreover, the company prides itself on having a flat organizational structure with strong collaboration across all levels and teams.
Nulogy also focuses on hiring people who have strong domain expertise and are humble and collaborative, making a meaningful contribution to workplace culture.
“Having never worked for a Canadian company before, I’ve found Nulogy has the easiest group of people I’ve ever worked with as they are incredibly collaborative and everybody just wants to do their best,” she smiles.
“IN EVERY DECISION WE MAKE, WE’RE ADDING A CAPABILITY OR FUNCTION AND ASKING OURSELVES – DOES THE CUSTOMER, BRAND, OR BRAND SUPPLIER GET VALUE OUT OF THIS?”
– CHRISTINE BARNHART, CHIEF INDUSTRY AND ECOSYSTEM OFFICER, NULOGY
“This is the core of what our Smart Factory Solution does, unlocking the ability to monitor machines on the plant floor, track production, and make data-based improvements,” Barnhart enthuses.
Indeed, the solution makes it quick and easy to deploy methodology, democratizing data and technology for small and medium-sized enterprises alongside big conglomerates.
FOSTERING EFFECTIVE PARTNERSHIPS
This year will see Nulogy continue to explore the concept of connected planning, in which it works with key partners to deliver advanced solutions.
“RATHER THAN QUESTIONING HOW TO DEPLOY AI EFFECTIVELY, WE ASK WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND WHAT DATA AND AI WE HAVE AVAILABLE TO SOLVE IT”
– CHRISTINE BARNHART, CHIEF INDUSTRY AND ECOSYSTEM OFFICER, NULOGY
embedded in industries the company serves, it can deliver not just the right capabilities but also the best forms of implementation to its customers.
In addition, the creation of Barnhart’s role as Chief Industry and Ecosystem Officer has become the cornerstone of Nulogy’s supply chain strategy, working with key players in the industry such as Gartner, Supply Chain Leaders in Action, and the Association of Supply Chain Management, alongside other masters of the supply chain.
“I work with industry partners and really rich supply chain thought leaders, as well as technology and alliance partners, bringing them all together in an ecosystem to determine what’s happening in the market and how best to solve problems,” Barnhart tells us.
FORWARD-THINKING INVESTMENTS
In line with global supply chain evolutions, Nulogy is exploring the vast potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and how it can be used in the future of supply chain management.
“Rather than questioning how to deploy AI effectively, we ask what the problem is and what data and AI we have available to solve it,” Barnhart comments.
With this in mind, Nulogy is developing new capabilities, set to launch later this year, which will better leverage 20 years of historical data as well as real-time information to make better recommendations and prescriptions.
“This will allow us to confidently advise clients on how best to utilize their data to make better decisions every day.
“It will also help reduce waste and labor time while optimizing production and the cost of goods, ultimately satisfying the customer to the best of our ability.”
As Nulogy navigates the future of the North American supply chain, it hopes to expand into new, more discrete industries and verticals, particularly with its Smart Factory Solution.
Market expansion and the deepening of partnerships are also key priorities going forward.
“A big focus for us is the expansion into other parts of Europe. We have a pretty good footprint in the UK, but we believe that we can help broaden the sphere of Europe and Latin America, making geographic expansion a key pillar for the company,” Barnhart concludes.
