About Alexandre

Supply Chain Consultant — Planning, MRP, ERP

  • - 5 years of experience in industrial planning (Coca-Cola on SAP, Godiva on Dynamics AX) in the agri-food sector. Production planner, capacity planner, MRP Key User alongside ERP consultants.
  • - Independent since 2025 in Lyon: teaching at ECAM Lyon, supply chain training (Certalis), operational support missions. DDMRP certification (b2wise) in May 2026.

Missions :

  • - Functional supply chain referent on ERP projects (SAP, Dynamics AX/365)
  • - MRP scoping: parameter audit, action plan
  • - S&OP / SIOP support, cycle facilitation
  • - Assistance in choosing planning tools

My approach :
I was a planner for 5 years before becoming a consultant. I know supply chain ERPs from the inside — what works daily, what gets stuck, what users work around. It is this experience that I bring to scoping, improvement, or training missions.

  • - MRP Key User on Dynamics AX at Godiva, in conjunction with HSO consultants: improved parameters, reliable suggestions
  • - Capacity planner at Godiva: load/capacity analysis within the S&OP process
