About Jacques

SAP IBP & Financial Performance Expert | Ex-Mattel, GSK, Tereos
"Are you facing a complex SAP S/4HANA migration? Are your inventory levels weighing on your working capital despite your planning tools? Or perhaps you're looking to finally align your sales forecasts with your budget targets?"
I intervene at the intersection of Supply Chain, Finance, and IT.
I align your Supply Chain with your profitability goals. As a technical and functional SAP IBP & Anaplan expert, I transform your planning processes into cash flow levers.
My Added Value:
Dual Culture: I speak the language of Finance (Working Capital, P&L) and the Field (S&OP, Sales).
Tool Expertise: Audit, configuration, and deployment (SAP IBP, S/4HANA, Anaplan).
Quantified Results: -18% inventory (Mattel), 82% Forecast Accuracy (GSK).
My Deliverables:
S&OP Governance: Implementation and facilitation of S&OP/IBP cycles to align Sales, Marketing, and Finance.
IT Transformation: Configuration and deployment of SAP IBP modules (Demand, S&OP, Inventory) and Anaplan.
Automation: Digitization of order flows (EDI/OCR) to eliminate manual tasks (e.g., +500 orders/day automated).
Transition Management: Immediate reinforcement for your Senior Demand Planning roles.
