With 20+ years leading project controls, PMO, and predictive scheduling across complex CAPEX portfolios in life sciences, energy, infrastructure, nuclear, and offshore industries, I help organisations transform how they plan, govern, and deliver major projects.
Founder of PROPRISM, I advise project leaders, engineering directors, and PMO heads on turning project controls into a strategic advantage — integrating schedule, cost, risk, change, and contracts into true decision intelligence.
My work sits at the intersection of data, behaviour, and strategy: building systems where visibility drives trust, trust drives predictability, and predictability accelerates CAPEX delivery.
I’ve supported multinational organisations (GSK, UCB, Takeda, MSD, Jan De Nul, Sweco, DPS Group…) and mentored PMO leaders globally. I teach Project Management at Université Paris-Saclay, speak on schedule-risk integration and high-maturity controls, and publish daily insights to 20,000+ project professionals on LinkedIn.
Creator of the Strategic Controls Framework™, I specialise in:
• Predictive & AI-enabled scheduling
• Portfolio governance & decision velocity
• Schedule–cost convergence
• Integrated risk & Monte Carlo analysis
• Controlled change & scope governance
• PMO design for large CAPEX environments
My mission: help 100 million managers build reliable, confident, data-driven projects, and reduce the €2T lost every year due to poor project controls.
