About Ibrehima

Senior Consultant – Operations Management, Operational Excellence & Crisis Management

With 13 years of managerial and strategic experience in the railway sector (SNCF / Captrain), I now support companies as an independent consultant to structure, optimize, and secure their organizational performance.
My career has taken me from the field to National Operations Management, where I have managed massive flows (90 trains per day), supervised up to 300 employees, and directed a real-time Operations Command Center (OCC). Certified in Crisis Management, I intervene with rigor and adaptability in complex industrial and logistics environments.

Operational Excellence: Performance audits, process optimization, resource allocation, and operational cost reduction.
Transition Management: Rapid takeover of operational departments, logistics sites, or maintenance workshops.
Crisis & Risk Management: Vulnerability diagnosis, business continuity plan design, and crisis cell management.
Transformation & Change Management: Supporting teams in deploying new tools (including AI and SAP integration) and ensuring regulatory compliance.
Whether you are facing a decline in efficiency, a major reorganization, or an urgent need for strategic management, I bring an expert perspective and pragmatic solutions to restore performance.
