Designing operating systems that make performance scalable.

Projects & Impact

Designing operating systems that scale

Across industries — pharma, industrial manufacturing, and automotive supply — the contexts changed.
The pattern did not.

Performance issues often appeared as:

  • Long lead times
  • High inventory
  • Delivery instability
  • Organisational friction
  • Post-merger disruption

But the underlying cause was rarely effort or capability.
It was system design.

My work has focused on one consistent objective:

Build operating systems that are transparent, accountable, and scalable — before optimising tools or accelerating execution.

Across these initiatives, improvements delivered multi-million-euro financial impact and structural performance gains.

The cases below reflect that arc:

  • Novo Nordisk → Designing flow and decision clarity in regulated environments
  • Alimex → Redesigning operating models and embedding capability through ERP and Lean Six Sigma
  • Bayer → Deploying production systems across sites with executive governance
  • Izrek Auto Labels → Scaling OEM-driven growth without scaling complexity

Different industries.
Different constraints.
Same principle:

Structure first.
Alignment second.
Automation last.

When systems are clear, performance follows.
When they are not, optimization only moves the problem.

Release Lead Time Reduction in Regulated Pharma Operations, Reduced end-to-end batch release lead time by 35% by redesigning flow, ownership, and stage-based governance—without compromising compliance. -> Read the case

Deviation Lead Time Reduction in Regulated Pharma Operations, Cut overdue deviations from ~95% to ~20% by eliminating rework loops and aligning decision quality across QA and Production. -> Read the case

Instant Release Robotic Process Automation (RPA) — Automation After Re-engineering, -> Read the case

Post-Merger Integration & Technology Transfer, Stabilized operations and executed production and technology transfer under post-merger uncertainty while protecting delivery, quality, and cost. -> Read the case

ERP-Enabled Organizational Transformation (Aliprop), Redesigned the operating model around product ownership and enabled it with a tailor-made ERP to eliminate duplication and restore end-to-end accountability. -> Read the case

Lean Six Sigma Deployment & Capability Building, -> Read the case

OEM-Driven Growth & Operating Model Transformation, Enabled OEM-driven growth through operating model redesign, productivity discipline, and ERP enablement—delivering a 30% increase in net profit per FTE. -> Read the case
