Operations Consulting for Regulated Retail

Your compliance binder won't save you from broken operations.

Four Thirty builds the systems, automations, and operational infrastructure that retail businesses need to stop firefighting and start scaling.

What We Build

01

Operational Systems

SOPs, inventory workflows, daily operating rhythms, and staff accountability structures — designed for environments where a single mistake costs a license.

02

AI-Powered Automation

Custom tools that replace manual reporting, surface patterns in your sales and compliance data, and eliminate the spreadsheet chaos your team works around every day.

03

Compliance Infrastructure

Regulatory requirements translated into living systems — not dusty binders. We build the processes that keep you audit-ready without burning out your team.

04

Product & Platform Strategy

From MVP scoping to go-to-market, we help operators and founders turn hard-won industry knowledge into working products that solve real problems.


From Operators We've Worked With

Tony came in and immediately saw the gaps we'd been working around for months. Within weeks we had actual systems instead of guesswork.

Before Tony's dashboards, I was spending my mornings piecing together yesterday's numbers from three different systems. Now I open one screen and know exactly where we stand.

Built from the inside out.

Four Thirty was founded by Tony Blount, a former FAA Air Traffic Controller who spent over a decade managing high-stakes, real-time systems in some of the countries' busiest air traffic facilities.

That background in pattern recognition, pressure management, and regulatory precision now powers a consulting practice built for the hardest operational problems in regulated retail.

How We Work

Step 01

Diagnose

We map your current operations, find where the real breakdowns live, and identify what's costing you time, money, or compliance risk.

Step 02

Build

We design and deploy the systems, automations, and workflows that fix what's broken — scoped tight, delivered fast, built to last.

Step 03

Sustain

We train your team, document everything, and set up the rhythms that keep the new systems running without you calling us every week.
