About Gninakan

IT consulting and digital transformation professional, I have been supporting large private groups and public institutions for several years in complex contexts of transformation, modernization, carve-out, IT governance, and strategic program management. I bridge the gap between business, IT, and management, with a strong focus on results, quality, and risk management.

My recent experiences at Veolia, Sanofi-CHC, and Sonepar have allowed me to manage critical systems such as outsourcing transitions, international IT separation programs, the reliability of application mapping, and the management of strategic tenders, ensuring cross-functional coordination, governance, KPI/SLA monitoring, and securing key milestones. I have also contributed to defining IT modernization roadmaps, rationalizing application portfolios, and supporting strategic decision-making for IT departments.

Previously, as an AMOA consultant, I participated in large-scale transformation projects within the Ministry of Ecological Transition, La Poste Groupe, and AFD, covering functional scoping, redesign of user journeys, agile management, acceptance testing, change management, and data governance.

With strong analytical, structuring, and communication skills, I can thrive in demanding and multicultural environments, bringing a clear, pragmatic, and value-oriented vision to secure IT transformations.

    As part of a transition project between an outgoing and incoming outsourcer, Veolia initiated a structured system for skills transfer and team autonomy. The objective was to ensure a smooth transition between providers while improving documentary quality, control over critical processes, and visibility on operational performance through reliable indicators.
    I supported Veolia in structuring, managing, and coordinating this transition, orchestrating knowledge transfer, monitoring commitments (SLA/KPI), and interactions between teams through an enhanced management system.

    My main activities were as follows:

    Phase 1 - Knowledge Transfer (KT):
    - Organization of knowledge transfer workshops with outgoing and incoming teams.
    - Structuring and updating operational documentation: procedures, operating methods, configurations, workflows.
    - Implementation of training materials and supporting documents to facilitate process adoption.
    - Monitoring of documentary completeness using dedicated KPIs (coverage rate, deliverable quality).

    Phase 2 - Shadowing:
    - Observation by incoming teams of activities performed by outgoing teams in real conditions.
    - Identification of gaps between theory and practice, and adjustments to KT materials.

    Phase 3 - Reverse Shadowing:
    - Takeover of activities by incoming teams under the supervision of outgoing teams.
    - Progressive validation of the ability to perform critical tasks without assistance.

    Phase 4 - Transfer Acceptance & Final Validation:
    - Development and execution of a transfer acceptance plan to validate the system's compliance.
    - Verification of transfer completeness using objective criteria: autonomy, quality, operational stability.

    As part of the modernization of the Procurement IT system and the progressive harmonization of the application landscape across the group's different entities, I supported Veolia in redesigning and validating its application mapping. This work was part of a global initiative aimed at:

    - Cleaning, normalization, and consolidation of a large volume of application data from various sources (local tools, internal repositories).
    - Ensuring consistency of functional and technical information to obtain a unified view of the Procurement application landscape.

    Scoping, analysis, and data crunching workshops:
    - Preparation and facilitation of workshops with Procurement, IT, and architecture teams.
    - In-depth analysis of processes covered by each application, their criticality, and usage rates.
    - Gathering of operational pain points and evolution needs.
    - Development of indicators to objectively assess the obsolescence or redundancy of existing applications.
    - Creation of a dynamic dashboard offering multi-angle views: impacted business areas, dependencies, risks, costs, obsolescence.
    - Writing a summary report to help teams manage the application portfolio.

    Strategic recommendations and roadmap:
    - Proposal of a transformation roadmap prioritizing short/medium-term actions (quick wins, major evolutions, migrations).
    - Support for IT teams in preparing the next steps of the modernization program.

    October 2024 - March 2025 (5 months)
    Paris, France
    As part of the separation program for the Consumer Healthcare (CHC) business, Sanofi initiated an IT carve-out project to equip the target entity with an autonomous, rationalized IT system compliant with international regulatory standards. This strategic project involved numerous departments (IT, Digital, Legal, Finance, Security) and required strong coordination between global and local teams.
    I supported Sanofi-CHC in structuring, managing, and ensuring operational governance for this transition, while actively contributing to the mapping and optimization of the application scope to ensure business continuity post-separation.

    My main activities focused on two areas:

    IT carve-out management & cross-functional coordination:
    - Supporting Sanofi-CHC in defining and executing the IT separation strategy in an international context.
    - Analyzing the organizational, functional, and contractual impacts associated with the carve-out.
    - Coordinating with global and local teams to ensure alignment of actions, requirements, and critical milestones.
    - Contributing to the structuring of workstreams and consolidating the overall IT transition plan.
    - Preparing and facilitating governance meetings, monitoring deliverables, and managing project communication.
    - Collaborating with IT, Digital, Legal, Finance, and Security departments to ensure cross-functional consistency and regulatory compliance.
    - Monitoring risks, arbitration, dependencies, and key decisions to secure program progress.

    Application scope mapping and rationalization:
    - Conducting an exhaustive mapping of the application portfolio for the carve-out scope (functions, uses, dependencies, criticality).
    - Identifying functional redundancies, technological duplicates, and technical risk areas.
