Melanie Rhodes is the Founder and CEO of Dynamic Supplier Solutions (DSS), a leading provider of supplier intelligence solutions designed for today’s complex, multi‑tier supply chains. With more than two decades of experience at Oracle Corporation, Deloitte Consulting, and Toyota Motor Corporation, she has built a career transforming how organizations use data, technology, and operational design to strengthen business performance.

Melanie’s journey began at Toyota, where she witnessed firsthand how limited supplier visibility, manual processes, and single‑threaded sourcing created unnecessary risk within global operations. Her work revealed a broader opportunity: organizations needed modern tools to understand their supplier ecosystems, anticipate vulnerabilities, and build sourcing strategies that improve agility and continuity — not just compliance.

Guided by that insight, Melanie launched the original Diversity Spend Solutions to help companies make better, data‑driven decisions about who they buy from and how their supplier networks function. As global supply chains became more interconnected — and more fragile — she evolved the company’s mission.

Today, formerly Diversity Spend Solutions, the organization operates as Dynamic Supplier Solutions (DSS), delivering full‑spectrum supplier intelligence that unites data, opportunity, and impact. DSS’s platform equips organizations with the visibility and insights needed to expand sourcing options, mitigate risk, and build stronger, more resilient supplier ecosystems.

Under Melanie’s leadership, DSS has become a trusted partner to Fortune 500 companies seeking to modernize their supplier strategies, enhance operational resilience, and future‑proof their supply chains with smarter, more diversified networks.

Melanie continues to champion the belief that better data and better visibility lead to better decisions — and that resilient supply chains are built, not inherited. Through DSS, she remains committed to helping organizations transform the way they source, partner, and grow.
