Building PreShiftIQ
An operator built this. Here is the record.
Thirty years in supply chain, no engineering background, and a live multi-vertical platform. This series is the honest account of how it got built: what I got right, what a real buyer proved I got wrong, and what it actually takes.
Read it in order. The posts build on each other, and the early ones set up arguments the later ones depend on. A new post publishes most weeks.
