Fewer slides, more execution
From strategy to delivery.
I lead complex digital transformation and system integration projects, design and build bespoke software, and bring artificial intelligence into business processes.
- 18years of experience
- 45enterprise and SME clients
- 77projects delivered
- 100projects closed on time and on budget
ClientsSome of the companies I have worked with.
They trust me with the projects that matter. I lead complex programmes and multidisciplinary teams from strategy to delivery, build the software you need and take AI where it produces results. I join the team, set priorities and governance, and stay until the results arrive.
How I can help
From strategy to the last line of code.
I work hands-on and, where needed, with a team of senior consultants chosen for each project.
Program and Delivery Management
I take charge of a project or programme and see it through, with time and costs under control.
- Delivery and program management
- Plans your team can follow
- Clear reporting for leadership
Software and app development
I design and build web and mobile applications, business management systems and integrations between systems.
- Web apps, mobile and PWA
- Backend, APIs and integrations
- Documented, maintainable code
AI in business
I identify where AI brings real benefit, design the solutions, introduce them into your processes and govern their adoption.
- Use cases chosen for expected return
- AI solutions built into your processes
- Governed adoption, trained team
Services
The services, in detail.
For each service you will find who it is for and what you get. The dedicated pages show how I work, case by case.
Program and Delivery Management
- WHO IT IS FOR
- Companies with a project that is late, over budget or stuck: several suppliers to coordinate, a team with no clear point of reference, deadlines that keep slipping and nobody with the full picture. It also applies to initiatives already under way.
- WHAT YOU GET
- A credible plan with defined responsibilities, risks put on the table and progress measured with clear numbers. Suppliers and team aligned, releases on the agreed dates and a clear picture to decide from.
- WHO IT IS FOR
- Leadership teams and business owners who have decided where to go, but see activities fail to start or get lost among conflicting priorities. Typical of growing SMEs and of companies changing model or market, where the strategy stays on paper.
- WHAT YOU GET
- A few measurable objectives, priorities shared by management and a quarterly roadmap your team can genuinely follow. Simple indicators to check progress and correct course before delays start to cost you.
- WHO IT IS FOR
- Companies with several interconnected projects, significant budgets and many stakeholders, across internal functions and suppliers. It is needed when dependencies can no longer be managed project by project and top management needs the whole picture.
- WHAT YOU GET
- A single view of dependencies, risks, costs and benefits, clear governance and decisions taken when they are needed, not afterwards. One point of reference reporting directly to top management for the whole life of the programme.
- WHO IT IS FOR
- Businesses that want to digitalise processes and tools without halting operations: outdated systems, manual tasks, data scattered across several applications, or a transformation already under way that is not taking off.
- WHAT YOU GET
- Processes redesigned starting from how you work today, tools chosen on merit rather than fashion, systems that talk to each other and people who actually use them, thanks to training and change support.
Software and app development
- WHO IT IS FOR
- Companies and startups that need a web or mobile app, a bespoke management system or an integration between systems, and one counterpart who combines product vision with technical expertise. Also those who already have a development team to lead.
- WHAT YOU GET
- Bespoke software, documented and tested, with an architecture your team can build on. Design, development and releases under control, with costs and timelines managed.
AI in business
- WHO IT IS FOR
- Companies that have tried a few AI tools but do not know where AI can bring real benefit, or where AI has not yet entered daily work. Also those who want to start safely, with clear rules and attention to data.
- WHAT YOU GET
- Use cases chosen for expected return, AI solutions built into existing processes and governed adoption: clear rules, trained people, measured results. We start with a pilot project, then extend it to the rest of the company.
AI in business
Almost every company has tried AI. Few really use it.
Buying the licences is the easy part. The real work is understanding where AI creates value in your company, designing the solutions, introducing them into your processes and governing their adoption until they become everyday work. That is what I do.
HOW IT USUALLY GOES
- Licences bought, used by few
- Everyone experiments on their own
- Prototypes that stay prototypes
- Nobody can say what it returns
HOW I WORK
- I identify the use cases where AI brings a measurable benefit
- I design and build the solutions inside your processes
- I train people on the work they do every day
- I govern adoption: clear rules, risks under control, measured results
Case studies
From problem to result.
Three of the projects I have led: delivery, governance and AI in sectors where mistakes are costly.
A critical multi-supplier portfolio, back on track.
Team restructured, governance redefined and a single roadmap for a business-critical portfolio.

Method
Work as a system.
Method, people and technology have to change together, or the change will not hold. That is why I always work in four phases.
- 01
Context analysis
I talk to people and look at processes and numbers. I understand first, then I propose.
- 02
Clear objectives
We set a few measurable objectives, clear to those who decide and to those who do the work.
- 03
Execution
Plan, deadlines and responsibilities. Where needed I write code, where needed I coordinate.
- 04
Adoption
I train the team and leave behind a method that keeps working when I am no longer there.
About
A manager with a strong passion for technology.
I started out writing software and moved on to leading teams, programmes and operations: COO, Delivery Manager, Program Manager, board member. Today I lead complex projects, write code when needed and bring AI into companies.
