Maxine Yang
Founder, Yangalytics
I help leadership teams understand what is actually happening inside their operational systems.
Former planning leader across Microsoft datacenter infrastructure, ASML semiconductor manufacturing, and Medtronic global supply chain.
Through Yangalytics, I help organizations turn fragmented operational data into clear decisions across demand, supply, and capacity. I frequently use AI as a strategic thought partner to accelerate analysis, scenario exploration, and system design.

Capacity & Inventory Planning Advisory
Helping organizations understand what is actually happening inside their operational systems, connecting demand, supply and capital through practical analytics and clear decision frameworks.
Situations I'm Brought Into
Organizations typically bring Yangalytics when inventory continues to grow but the root cause is unclear, demand signals exist but procurement decisions remain reactive, infrastructure or capacity programs lack readiness visibility, teams rely on dashboards but still lack decision clarity, and leaders need a clearer model of how operations actually work.​
Track Record
Maxine Yang has led planning and operational analytics across complex global environments including:
​
Microsoft - global planning and analytics for hyperscale datacenter infrastructure
ASML - planning leadership supporting semiconductor manufacturing scale-up
Medtronic - global supply chain risk and operational planning
​
These environments share the same challenge:
large operational systems where decisions become disconnected from the underlying data.
​
Yangalytics focuses on reconnecting those layers.
What We Do
Yangalytics helps organizations design and deploy analytical models and AI-enabled decision systems that support confident, real-time decision-making in supply chain and operations.
The Capacity Readiness Diagnostic measures how ready your infrastructure is to turn investment into live capacity.
Where appropriate, we incorporate AI-enabled scenario analysis and exception monitoring to surface risks and support faster executive decisions.
Outcomes:
-
Visibility across sites
-
Faster time-to-ready and higher capital utilization
Inventory Clarity Sprint
When products pile up in the wrong places, or parts run short, teams lose time and capital. The Inventory Clarity Sprint diagnoses where demand, supply, and stock are out of sync and why, then deliver a practical playbook to fix.
Outcomes:
-
Working capital released
-
Fewer shortages and firefights
-
A clear dashboard for planning
Operations Analytics & Decision Design
We build analytics, AI-assisted decision support, and simple operating rhythms that align teams fast. From KPI and dashboard design to scenario planning and S&OP, each solution builds structures and insights that turn noise into action.
Outcomes:
-
Accountability across functions
-
Unified metrics and data
-
Actionable decision frameworks
The Yangalytics Method
Most operational problems are not caused by lack of data - they arise when decisions, ownership, and signals are disconnected.
​
The Yangalytics Method brings structure to complex operational environments by identifying where decisions stall, clarifying ownership, and using targeted analytics to turn fragmented data into actionable insight.
Who We Work With
Yangalytics partners with leaders who need clarity and alignment across fast-moving operations:
• Cloud & Infrastructure Teams — organizations scaling datacenter deployment
• Manufacturing & Med-Tech Operations — connecting production, supply, and investments
• Growth-Stage & PE-Backed Firms — scaling companies seeking models and dashboards to guide investment
Across all engagements, the goal is the same: translate complex data into actionable scenarios and clear decisions — without the overhead of a large consulting team. Many of our partners are also navigating how to responsibly integrate AI into existing planning, analytics, and operational decision processes.
