Delivery leader who builds the systems behind execution.

14 years across four organizations — Tech Mahindra, EY, BCG, NetBramha. The same problem kept showing up: teams working hard, leadership flying blind. I close that gap. Not with better reporting, but with infrastructure that actually changes how decisions get made.

Visibility
Leadership shouldn't need a call to find out project status. I build the infrastructure so they don't have to ask.
Systems
Not dashboards for their own sake. Systems that actually change how decisions get made — and that the team uses every day.
Execution
14 years running delivery at scale — 50+ person teams, 15+ concurrent projects, multiple regions. The part that shows up when planning ends.

14 Years of Building Visibility

Same gap across four organizations — leadership couldn't see what was actually happening. Click each to see how I solved it.

The Situation

No one in the PMO had a clear view of what was actually happening across delivery. Projects lived in scattered spreadsheets. Leadership found out about problems when they became crises. There was no system — just people chasing each other for updates.

What I Did

Built the first consolidated MIS reporting structure from scratch — designed the data model, built weekly reports, and became the single source of truth for delivery visibility. PMO leadership started using it to plan. That was the point where I understood what delivery infrastructure actually does.

The Situation

Risk Transformation had 250+ consultants spread across EMEIA, APAC, and Oceania — and no single person owning allocation across all three. Staffing happened through email chains. Bench time was invisible. When demand came in, no one knew who was actually available until it was urgent.

What I Did

Became the single regional POC for all three regions. Built demand-supply forecasting from scratch, ran allocation through Oracle ERP, and owned bench management across time zones. Turned a fragmented, reactive process into something leadership could actually plan from. Also trained 125+ colleagues on advanced Excel — because better tools only work if people know how to use them.

The Situation

Data & Research Services at BCG was running delivery across India and the Middle East with no real-time view of capacity, billability, or client patterns. Directors were planning based on instinct. The data existed — it just wasn't being surfaced in a form anyone could use to make decisions.

What I Did

Took sole ownership of the entire Middle East region — a 50+ consultant base, no support, fully independent. At the same time, I was coordinating delivery across the India operation, making it 170+ consultants across two regions running in parallel. On top of that, I taught myself Power BI and built the dashboards Directors used for capacity planning — because the data existed but nobody was turning it into something leadership could actually act on.

Role

Senior Project Coordinator — Data & Research Services. Sole owner of Middle East delivery. Coordinated 170+ consultants across India and ME simultaneously. Led the workflow team. Built Director-level reporting through self-taught Power BI.

NetBramha: Delivery at Scale

2+ years running 15+ concurrent projects across 50+ people. Redesigned the delivery model, built the tools, and brought the team along.

Delivery & Execution

When I joined, delivery ran on instinct and Slack. No consistent process, no visibility, no way to catch problems early. I rebuilt the operating model from scratch — weekly delivery reviews, RAG tracking, risk escalation paths, client communication cadences. 15+ projects running in parallel now, and leadership can see exactly where each one stands.

Stakeholder & Client Management

Managing CXO, VP, and Director-level relationships across active client engagements. I own the health of those relationships — not just the status updates, but the early signals that a client is drifting or a conversation needs to happen before it becomes a problem. Built a tool to track this systematically so nothing gets missed.

Operations & Infrastructure

The team was running on five separate tools with no connection between them — resourcing in one place, project tracking in another, performance in a spreadsheet. I consolidated it into a single platform. Resource allocation, capacity planning, utilisation tracking — all visible in one place, updated in real time.

People & Team Development

Working directly with junior PMs on the craft that doesn't show up in job descriptions — how to run a difficult client call, how to push back on scope without losing the relationship, how to make a call when you don't have enough information. Building accountability into the rhythm of the team, not just the process.

The Pattern

The tools changed with each organisation — spreadsheets, ERP, Power BI, custom platforms. But the problem stayed the same: delivery at scale without enough visibility. That's the gap I've spent 14 years closing.

I'm currently looking for delivery leadership roles — programme management, delivery director, resource management, operations. If you're building a team or solving a similar problem, I'd like to talk.

PM Coaching
I also work with PMs one-on-one. Delivery craft, stakeholder management, strategic thinking — the things that make the difference but nobody formally teaches.
