Seed to IPO4+ yearsMulti-country
// the challenge

ChargePoint needed to scale manufacturing and supply chain fast enough to keep up with national demand for EV charging hardware, without the vendor ecosystem or ramp governance in place to do it reliably across multiple countries.

// outcome

Product operations and strategic manufacturing scaled with the company from $5M to $120M in quarterly revenue, seed stage through IPO, over 4+ years.

Supply chainVendor opsReadiness
// approach
  1. 1

    Built a vendor ecosystem with standardized scorecards and quarterly business reviews (QBRs), so every supplier was held to the same operating bar as the company scaled.

  2. 2

    Set up ramp governance across multi-country manufacturing rollouts, so new production lines could come online without breaking the ones already running.

  3. 3

    Led an onsite intervention that stabilized a failing contract manufacturer, protecting a critical link in the supply chain during a high-growth period.
