4flow Appoints Greg Toornman to Accelerate Global Supply Chain Innovation

Supply chain consulting, software and fourth-party logistics (4PL) services provider 4flow, has appointed Greg Toornman as strategic advisor.

Toornman, the former Global Vice President of Materials Management, Logistics, and Demand Planning at AGCO Corporation, brings over two decades of transformational leadership and innovation in global supply chain operations, the company indicated on April 8.

His appointment at 4flow underscores the company’s commitment to strengthen relationships across industries and help 4flow extend its influence, particularly in North America and its supply chain practice.

“I’m excited to join 4flow and help advance our shared mission of innovation and excellence in supply chain management,” said Toornman. “I look forward to shaping the future of supply chains across sectors.”

The company collaborates with end users to design and implement SAP-based supply chain solutions that include end-to-end transformation for SAP S/4HANA, SAP digital logistics, and SAP Production Planning and Scheduling Services. It also provides consulting, implementation, transformation and training services for SAP S/4HANA and SAP Digital Supply Chain Solutions.

Throughout his 20-year career at AGCO, Toornman played a pivotal role in modernizing the company’s logistics and operations landscape. His efforts garnered multiple prestigious awards, including the BVL Supply Chain Innovation Award, the ELA Gold Medal, and recognition from the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing. Under his guidance, AGCO became a global benchmark for operational efficiency and innovation.

His long-standing collaboration with 4flow, especially in co-developing globally integrated logistics networks, has already delivered tangible industry impact.

Kai Althoff, CEO of 4flow, welcomed Toornman, noting his “deep industry expertise and outstanding track record will be key as we continue expanding our global presence and delivering value to clients worldwide.”

What This Means for SAPinsiders

Toornman’s appointment will strengthen 4flow’s SAP digital supply chain practice. 4flow provides deep integration capabilities with core SAP platforms, including SAP S/4HANA, SAP Transportation Management (TM), and SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP). This ensures that supply chain processes—ranging from order fulfillment to multi-modal logistics planning—are fully synchronized and optimized within the SAP ecosystem. 4flow’s ability to connect seamlessly with SAP environments helps organizations reduce data silos, enhance automation, and accelerate real-time decision-making.

4flow enhances SAP-powered operations through analytics-driven network design. It also uses transport route optimization and scenario planning to enhance operational efficiency for SAP users. For example, 4flow has assisted a consumer goods company leveraging SAP IBP and SAP TM to optimize its European distribution network. 4flow’s simulation tools, integrated with SAP data, identified inefficiencies in inventory positioning and route planning resulting in a 15% reduction in logistics costs, 10% faster delivery times, and a significant decrease in carbon emissions across their network—all managed within their SAP environment.

Strategic support for SAP-driven digital transformation. With a strategic advisor like Toornman and a history of co-developing innovative logistics models, 4flow will help clients not only implement SAP solutions but evolve their supply chain strategy. This includes aligning SAP capabilities with broader business transformation goals. Recently, the company worked with an agricultural equipment manufacturer, transitioning to SAP S/4HANA, to redefine its global supply chain operating model. Beyond system migration, 4flow helped redesign inventory buffers, supplier collaboration processes, and logistics planning to fully exploit S/4HANA’s real-time analytics. This strategic overhaul led to improved forecast accuracy, reduced working capital, and faster new product rollout cycles.
