Value-generating Process Optimization

As a certified Business Process Professional (“CBPP” and ISO 19011 cert.), I drive digital transformation to achieve operational excellence, efficiency, and strategic alignment. My analytical approach begins with deep understanding of customer challenges, detailed process discovery and modeling of current and future states. By implementing sustainable process governance frameworks and leveraging performance measurement techniques, I enable organizations to achieve their strategic goals.

Innovative tools and methods

As a senior consultant and product owner for software with deep technical expertise, I have experience with cutting-edge applications across automotive, aviation, and other industries. My skill set spans the entire lifecycle, including requirements management, MVP development, release planning, DevOps integration, and partnering. Leveraging data- and AI-driven insights as well as user-centric approaches, I establish solutions that create measurable business value and competitive advantages.

Professional Project Management

As an IPMA Level D-certified project manager, I focus on aligned objectives to ensure tangible results with active engagement of stakeholder. My collaborative approach fosters user-centric design, scalable solutions and incorporates customers as well as business or technology partners. By applying tailored methods such as agile practices and robust governance frameworks, I consistently deliver projects that exceed expectations within time, budget and scope.

Understanding of technology + business

The digital transformation can be seen on a social- and intercompany perspective. It is important to understand the interdependencies e.g. to know about data mining, how to combine which data for added value and how to drive new business. I am proud to give advice in following application areas:

  • Process optimization/ digital transformation (measured on cost reduction, efficiency ...)
  • Software evaluation esp. ERP, CRM, IoT and AI (measured on transparency, usability, ...)
  • Project Management not only for development (projects within scope, time & budget, ...)
  • Business Development (measured on sales revenue, synergy effects, growth rate, ...)

An open but responsible approach is essential for real innovation. For me, Albert Einstein is a role model who left behind not only stunning formulas but also meaningful thinking like these:

"Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value."

Global coverage

Global challenges require global solutions, but starting with a focused, controlled approach is often the best way forward. From there, you can explore new products and business models to scale internationally.

My home base is Ahrensburg, near Hamburg, Germany—a relaxed and inspiring environment. However, I also love traveling to other countries and immersing myself in different cultures and locations that offer fresh perspectives.

P.S.: German is my native language, but I am fluent in English as well.

Social Skills

For me, investing in soft skills is essential. These don’t have to be costly—often, it’s about gaining new perspectives and insights from external sources. The journey begins with consciously tuning into your intuition, understanding your environment, and recognizing the outcomes of your own thoughts and actions. I bring a well-balanced approach to the following ways of working:
– Strong communication skills and dedication
– A focus on result-oriented goals and independence
– Embracing mutual learning and respectful feedback
– Motivating teams by fostering creativity and task ownership

IT expertise, valuation of innovation/markets

Through numerous projects, I have gained a broad understanding of various solutions and relevant requirements. I have managed the selection of suitable applications for both customers and internal use, ensuring sustainable partnerships with solution providers. While I am not a programmer, I contribute to conceptual development by defining customer jurneys or epics, user stories and other scrum objects to creating clear ideas and inspire with new features. By the way, also this website was created by me using WordPress, addons and AI. In my free time, I enjoy working with photo-, video-, and music production tools, where AI also creates incredible new possibilities and accelerates workflows in this field. Below is a brief overview of some tools I have used or implemented:

AI, BI and BPMN tools:

Aris, Power BI, Copilot, Gemini (Gems), Chat GPT (individual GPT’s), …

What clients and partner say

“As a Projekt Manager I worked with Robert at Philips Medical Systems. He was responsible for the planning methods in the Project Management Office. We used the PPM System “Clarity” by CA for the product development projects. On the one hand Robert customized the system in order to get a realy “usable” Multi Project Management environment for our matrix organization. On the other hand he optimized the planning and ressource allocation processes.

He has a proven knowledge and know’s how to deal with stakeholders”

About mid-zised companies – the backbone of Germans industry

In following video you will see, how ERP Systems support supply chains. For automated processes you will find Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) with connection to hardware systems like shuttles. Some systems has the ability to integrate different manufacturer and streamline them to individual logistics – optimized for your processes.

I have lead a selection process to find a suitable WMS partner for proalpha and in the interests of our customers. In the end it became two partners for technical, strategic and commercial reasons.
