About

From master data to the boardroom.

I'm Radu, a digital transformation consultant with a product background. I started in sales and analytics, then spent years making global processes work at HP before leading teams and programmes at Pfizer, Oracle, NEPI Rockcastle, OMV Petrom and now E.ON.

That path gave me something rare: I understand the data, the process and the people, and I know how they have to move together for change to stick.

FAQ

Good questions.

What does a digital transformation consultant do?

I help organisations turn a strategy into working change: choosing the right use cases, proving them on real data, delivering the product or rollout and making sure people actually adopt it. The technology matters, but the data, the process and the people have to move together.

What is a proof-of-concept sprint?

A short, focused project that tests an AI, machine learning or automation idea on your real data, usually within a few weeks. It has clear success criteria agreed up front and ends with a go/no-go decision and, if it works, a business case and plan to scale.

Which industries have you worked in?

Technology, pharma, commercial real estate and energy, across 17+ years in global and regional roles. The use cases on this site come from fuel retail, energy distribution and retail property.

Do you work remotely?

Yes. I work with teams over video call and collaborative tools, and can join in person for key workshops when that adds value.

Which languages do you work in?

English and Romanian.

How do we get started?

Book a free 30-minute intro call or send me an email. Bring one real problem and you'll leave with a first view on how to prove it. I reply to emails within two working days.

Are company names kept confidential?

Yes. The use cases on this site are anonymised: they describe the problem, the approach and the result without naming the organisation.
