Your spend sits in the system, your decisions get made beside it. SAP ECC is becoming obsolete, Ariba is deployed without real adoption, Power BI stays a promise, and your PLCs don’t report their consumption.

A tool deployed is not a tool adopted, and adoption is what decides.

I designed, deployed and ran these systems myself, from the chemical production floor to European management.

A rare, documented expertise

I designed the two-way interface between an industrial DCS (CPI9000, Emerson DeltaV, Rockwell) and SAP PP via Oracle middleware: process orders pushed down, consumption reported up, automatic real-time stock entry of the finished product, with no re-keying. Deployed in the SEVESO chemical production of a specialty group: 600 recipes, 100,000 T/year, 3,600 batches traced lot by lot. Very few SAP consultants have carried out this integration themselves.
