AutoScheduler.AI announces elite executive advisory board to shape the future of warehouse decision intelligence

AutoScheduler.AI announced the formation of its Executive Advisory Board. The board comprises five elite industry veterans who have collectively managed the world’s most complex and high-velocity supply chains.

The newly appointed board includes:

• Rick McDonald: Former Chief Supply Chain Officer of The Clorox Company (32 years at Clorox; 10 years at Frito-Lay).

• Dwight Klappich: Former Research Vice President at Gartner with 40 years of industry expertise.

• Jake Barr: CEO of BlueWorld Supply Chain Consulting and former P&G supply chain leader who scaled operations across 120+ countries.

• Tom Greger: CEO of TAG Solutions Group with extensive retail leadership experience at Chico’s, PetSmart, Five Below, and Petco.

• Eric Wilhelm: Noted Supply Chain Serial Entrepreneur and founder of multiple successful ventures.

Innovation Through Experience

"The prospect of helping to improve efficiencies in the warehouse and doing it in real-time is incredibly compelling," says McDonald. "AutoScheduler does exactly what we used to do manually, but it does it much faster and with significantly fewer people. It is a true evolution of AI,” adds Wilhelm.

Barr says, “The ability to orchestrate at an execution level, despite the chaos operations run into, and turn it into a calm plan that can be executed, is incredible." Klappich adds, “He kind of tapped out and needed to do more, believing there was an opportunity to apply better, more advanced technologies.” Greger says, “Since there wasn’t one effective tool that was out there that could help the operations really plan and execute, which is why he was very excited when he heard about AutoScheduler.”

"Bringing together this level of intellectual capital is a testament to the transformative power of what we’ve built at AutoScheduler,” says Keith Moore, CEO of AutoScheduler.AI. “These leaders have sat in the driver’s seat of the world’s largest supply chains; they know exactly where the friction exists. By partnering with experts like Rick, Dwight, Jake, Tom, and Eric, we are ensuring that our AI remains grounded in real-world operational excellence while we push the boundaries of what is possible in warehouse orchestration."

The appointment of this Executive Advisory Board isn't just a corporate milestone; it’s a strategic move that delivers high-value outcomes for AutoScheduler.AI customers. The most significant benefit is that AutoScheduler’s product roadmap is now being vetted by people who have lived through the chaos.

Customers benefit from a shift in philosophy. The Executive Advisory Board is pushing the AI to move beyond simple automation toward orchestration. This means customers get a tool that doesn't just flag problems but also creates a predictable, executable schedule, which reduces the tapped out feeling many warehouse teams face.
