See the casesFour ways of working, one standard: evidence first, decisions with names and dates, and results reported as measured — including the ones that fell short.
Turning an AI inventory into a governed, funded programme.
Taking the Data & AI function through a mandate, a crisis or a hand-over.
Stabilising, relaunching and closing data, CRM and IoT platforms.
Prototypes built personally, then industrialised with the team.
Thirty years in data, technology and transformation, twenty of them with international consulting firms; independent since 2017.
