Experience

The domain, the people, and the work in production.

Systems, process, and agentic work sit on the same ground.

The systems

The Systemverse, and the systems beside it.

Best practice where you are standard. Your sauce where you are not. The work is knowing which is which, then anchoring the systems to a company-owned data core.

The Systemverse

Company-owned data core at the center. Systems around it.

Process and people

Six constellations, and the Beehive.

The Systemverse maps the software. The constellations map the process flows. The Beehive carries the people. The six flows cross the functional groups so accountability does not fall between vendor cracks.

The six constellations

Same six every company. The mix is yours.

The Six Process Constellations: P2P, O2C, P2M, S2S, D2R, MDM around the data core.

P2PInbound value chain

Procure to Pay

Supplier lifecycle, purchase requisitions, PO dispatch, three-way matching, receiving, and accounts payable.

O2COutbound value chain

Order to Cash

Customer master, pricing engines, order entry, depletions, fulfillment, billing, and accounts receivable.

P2MTransformation core

Plan to Manufacture

Demand planning (S&OP), MRP, BOMs, plant SCADA/MES automation, scheduling, and batch traceability.

S2SERP + HR

Systems that Support

The ERP side and the HR side. ERP runs all three primaries; HR/HCM is the people side none of those chains own. IT, cybersecurity, and productivity span with them.

D2RAnalytics + awareness

Data to Report

Corporate planning, executive BI, financial consolidation, margin telemetry, and statutory reporting.

MDMCross-cutting foundation

Master Data Management

Item master, customer master, vendor master, chart of accounts, and governance across the estate. The missing link I keep finding on transformations.

My executive experience includes leading technology across multi-site manufacturing businesses, with responsibility for direction, investment, and the people delivering the work.

I build with the people and the systems the company already has, and I stay accountable. When the work needs more than that team, I bring engineers, project managers, partners, and specialists for the agreed scope.

How I work

Find the cause. Own the change. Check the result.

I trace how people, process, data, and technology connect to find the cause behind the friction. Then I own the targeted delivery with your team, accounting for the dependencies around it.

Applied agentics helps accelerate investigation, building, and testing. Before delivery, we agree explicit acceptance criteria and how to verify the change. Afterward, we check the operational result against those criteria, with a named person accountable.

Data Integration Group.A post-M&A estate in 11 months. Financial close from 18 days to four. Chart of accounts and WMS unified.

Data Integration Group. Standardized complex item records into a common item master for enterprise and third-party integration.

Data Integration Group. A separate delivery: a stalled ERP recovered, and a company-owned API bridge.

30 years · 50+ implementations · 15 transformations at scale

That evidence has to hold under scrutiny. Who is on the estate, what they can reach, who can change the books, and a trail of what ran. When agents can reach the same estate, the questions are the same kind: what is already running, what it can see and do, who authorizes the write, and what it cost. Track costs against the work and the outcomes it supports. A named person can halt the work.

The time is now

Every ten-year wave was the same game. This one is not.

Mainframe. Client-server and ERP. Cloud and SaaS. Each one was a new platform and a long replacement. Applied agentics does not wait for a decade. It lands on the stack and the data you already own.

The first three waves rhyme as platform replacements. The fourth wave lands on the systems you already own.

On that same ground

Three types of agentic systems in production.

Three types of agentic systems in production, through Data Integration Group. BOSS is one of the systems on this ground.

Type 01

Enterprise transformation management

From planning through go-live. Tracking milestones, cutover dependencies, and delivery evidence.

Type 02

Governed software delivery

Traceable decisions, delivery evidence, verified audit trails, and human authorization gates.

Type 03

Workflows executed by people and agents

Using company-owned data. Human judgment at critical gates. Work that lands inside enterprise systems.

Data Integration Group. Four years applying agentics on company-owned data, with a trail of the source, the action, the approval, and the result. A named person authorizes the write.
