I've been on your side of the table.

Twenty-five years inside operations at Unilever, 3M, HP, and Avery Dennison — supply chain, planning, and the reporting that holds it together. I've owned the monthly numbers, chased the extract that broke at 6am, and rebuilt the report everyone quietly distrusted.

That's the difference. When you describe a broken SAP extract or a planning file held together with manual tweaks, I'm not reaching for a framework. I'm asking about your specific data structure, because I've probably untangled the same knot before.

I work fractional and interim — not permanent — with manufacturing and distribution companies in the Netherlands and Belgium, in English, Dutch, and French. The companies above aren't name-drops; they're the environments where these data problems are the actual day-to-day reality.
