About

PMP certified project manager with three years of on-the-ground delivery across Asia, now based in Paris and open to opportunities globally.

I am a project manager and ERP implementation consultant who has delivered complex digital transformation programs across manufacturing, retail, and distribution operations in India, Vietnam, and Bangladesh. I manage the full project lifecycle, from discovery and scoping through configuration, UAT, training, and go-live, coordinating cross-functional teams and executive stakeholders across geographies and time zones.

What I bring to every engagement: end-to-end delivery accountability, PMO governance and RAID management, stakeholder alignment at every level, change management that drives real adoption rather than shelf-ware, and pre-sales consulting experience across SaaS and ERP platforms.

Currently based in Paris. MSc in Luxury and Fashion Management from Paris School of Business. B.Tech in Fashion Technology from NIFT New Delhi. PMP certified May 2026. Open to project management, ERP and PLM consulting, pre-sales, and supply chain transformation roles globally.

The best project managers do not just deliver software. They change how an organisation sees itself. That is what I aim for on every engagement: measurable outcomes, lasting adoption, and a client who could not imagine going back.

ERP and MES Digital Transformation at Scale
Solvei8 · India, Vietnam, Bangladesh · 2021 to 2024
SaaS Implementation
Expand ↓
Challenge
Clients were operating with manual, paper-based production tracking across facilities of 500 to 5,000 employees and 5 to 100+ assembly lines. Reporting was delayed, defect visibility was poor, and supply chain transparency was insufficient for international retail and audit requirements. Implementations needed to work across three countries with different languages, operational cultures, and technology maturity levels. Managed 5 parallel programs simultaneously, each at different project stages.
Approach
Discovery and Scoping: Conducted As-Is process workshops. Mapped workflows, identified pain points, defined To-Be operational states.

PMO and Planning: Developed project plans, RAID logs, risk registers, and milestone trackers for each concurrent deployment. Maintained visibility through steering committee meetings and sprint reviews.

Implementation: Owned full delivery lifecycle covering ERP and MES configuration, UAT coordination, go-live management, and post-implementation stabilisation.

Change Management: Built user adoption programs scaling training from 10-person specialist sessions to 300+ line worker rollouts.

Pre-Sales
Expand ↓
Context
Supported the full pre-sales cycle for new account acquisition across India, Vietnam, and Bangladesh. The challenge was demonstrating measurable ROI to factory directors at organisations of 500 to 5,000 employees who were skeptical of technology investment and needed clear commercial evidence before committing to platform adoption.
What I Did
Discovery: Ran As-Is workshops with operations and IT stakeholders to map current state and identify transformation opportunities.

Demo and Proposal: Delivered tailored product demonstrations. Built ROI models quantifying projected DHU reduction, cost savings, and efficiency gains.

Scoping: Developed implementation proposals and effort estimations setting realistic expectations for successful project delivery.

Transition: Managed seamless handover from pre-sales to implementation, maintaining client relationship continuity throughout.

The Model
Post go-live, I transitioned from implementation lead to account owner, maintaining the ongoing relationship with each client across the full post-deployment lifecycle. The portfolio spanned 15+ accounts of varying size (500 to 5,000 employees, 5 to 100+ assembly lines) across three countries, each at different stages of platform maturity and product adoption.
Activities
Monthly Performance Reviews: Structured sessions reviewing KPI dashboard outputs covering DHU trends, efficiency indices, and maintenance uptime.

Upsell Identification: Monitored product usage patterns to identify clients ready to expand across the platform suite. Expanded 6 to 7 accounts adding 20 to 25 modules each.

Escalation Management: Served as primary escalation point for platform issues and user adoption blockers.

Training Refreshers: Delivered targeted re-training when new features launched or adoption metrics dropped.

How I Work

01 · Discovery
Assess Before Acting
Every project starts with thorough discovery. I run stakeholder workshops, map current state processes, identify risks and constraints, and define clear success criteria before any implementation begins. Assumptions get documented. Surprises get minimized.
02 · Planning
Plans That Get Used
I build project plans that are actually used: risk registers that get updated, RAID logs that drive decisions, and status reports that tell the truth about progress. Planning is a living activity, not a one-time document.
03 · Stakeholders
Alignment at Every Level
I manage stakeholders from C-suite to end user. Executive steering committees get clear business-impact reporting. Operations teams get practical guidance. End users get change management that makes adoption stick.
04 · Delivery
Go-Live Accountability
I own go-live readiness. UAT is structured, exit criteria are defined, and post-implementation reviews confirm that outcomes are real and measurable. No project is complete until KPIs are confirmed against baseline.
05 · Methodology
Hybrid by Default
PMP certified with practical experience in agile, waterfall, and hybrid approaches. I adapt methodology to the project, not the other way around. What matters is delivery, not dogma.
06 · Improvement
Every Project Better
I run retrospectives, capture lessons learned, and apply them systematically. Continuous improvement is built into every engagement through structured reflection and documented outcomes.

Independent Projects

Built independently outside of professional engagements. These projects demonstrate end-to-end delivery capability, technical initiative, and the ability to scope, execute, and ship complex products from scratch without a team.
