Global SAP transformation
The short version
I advise CIOs and transformation leads who are about to bet a large, high-risk programme on getting the people, the pace, and the tooling right. Twenty-seven years in SAP delivery, across pharma, chemicals, automotive, retail, biotech, and media, on programmes that span continents and cultures.
A global programme is not a local one repeated in more time zones. It succeeds or fails on nuance: how a decision lands in São Paulo versus Antwerp versus Dallas, who really holds the room, when to push and when to listen. That is the part most advisors miss. It is the part I was built for.
Delivery across more than twenty countries, multi-country rollouts, teams spread across regions and time zones. Fluent in English and Portuguese, conversational in Spanish and Italian. The cultural fluency to read a room you have never sat in before, and the experience to know what that room is not telling you.
What I build
I build the tools I wish my clients had. Real software, in real use on real programmes, not slideware.
Map and decide the right toolchain for an SAP transformation, by priority, not by vendor pitch.
A decision tool that turns a noisy market of SAP delivery tools into a clear, priority-based map. Sales teams and clients use it to design a toolchain around what the programme actually needs: data residency, certifications, integration, AI capability. Built in-house, in daily use on live programmes.
Three of the calls that decide an SAP S/4HANA programme: the integrator, the team, and the data. Made on evidence, not on a pitch.
Three vendor-neutral decision tools behind one shell. Choose an integrator by weighted fit against editable criteria, with a fit radar, the watch-outs a polished pitch is built to hide, and the RFP questions to put to every firm. Assess cutover data readiness across six quality dimensions for a board-grade go / no-go verdict, with a hard veto gate the average cannot override. Lock the named senior team with a key-personnel clause that makes a bait-and-switch contractually expensive. No logos pre-loaded, nothing leaves the browser.
