# Jack Fiedler

**Jack Fiedler** is the former leader of [[entity-lenovo]]'s digital transformation team, who oversaw the company's supply chain intelligence programs and the development of [[concept-ichain-architecture]] ([[entity-ichain]]).

**Role in the source:** the practitioner voice. Where [[entity-robert-handfield]] provides the academic framing, Fiedler supplies the first-hand operational narrative — what Lenovo actually built, why, and how planners behaved.

**Attributed contributions to this vault:**
- [[quote-one-architecture]] — *"We wanted one architecture everyone could leverage with AI."* (the strategic vision behind iChain, supporting [[claim-isolated-tools-fail]]).
- [[quote-supplier-under-commitment]] — the concrete description of planner overreaction, supporting [[claim-supplier-under-commitment]] and motivating [[concept-supply-commit-accuracy-system]].

> **Enrichment note:** Most authoritative public presence is his LinkedIn profile — https://www.linkedin.com/in/jackfiedler — associated with internal development of iChain per the HBR case.
