TCO Transition
Procurement and Supply Chain interim management
A key role is vacant. An urgent transformation must be steered. A crisis to manage. You cannot wait 6 months for a hire.
I step in as interim Procurement Director or Manager: operational immediately, proven method, commitment to measurable results.
Accredited DOI (Internal Operations Director) on a SEVESO II site: the legal role standing in for the Site Director. Real activation during the 2019 fire at a specialty chemicals group, a subsidiary of a listed US group (internal emergency plan triggered, several days of 24/7 rotation, direct interface with the Prefecture, DREAL, fire and rescue services, media). Combined with 12 years of steering European indirect procurement: from €2M to €18M of annual value generated, same team, same scope.
6 transition missions, from assessment to handover
Replacing an incumbent
Full cover during the vacancy: team management, supplier steering, ongoing tenders, leadership reporting.
Performance turnaround
Full audit in 4 weeks: organization, processes, tools, stance. Setting up the tracking of savings, quantified one by one, and the indicators.
Change management
Organizational and digital transformation. A systematic approach: involve before deploying, train, measure adoption.
Crisis management
Failing supplier, critical shortage, industrial incident, imposed reorganization. Heavy decisions under pressure, coordination of internal and external stakeholders.
Industrial supply chain
Optimizing internal flows, reducing stock, making picking reliable, deploying WMS, finite-capacity scheduling.
WMS and logistics IS go-live
Full PMO of a WMS or logistics IS rollout on an industrial site: scoping, vendor selection, configuration, field acceptance, training, change management. A one-off 6-to-18-month mission, distinct from interim Supply Chain management.
Interim management is not about filling a gap. It’s about steering a function under pressure, and making it better before you leave.
