Description

Looking to perform an aeronautical compliance audit, a gap assessment, or secure a development in a DO-178C, DO-254, ARP4754A, ARP4761, or more broadly critical systems environment? I help you objectify gaps, qualify risks, and build concrete action plans to get your project, organization, or supplier back on a controlled trajectory.

My added value lies in combining a rigorous interpretation of standards with a very operational, hands-on approach. I don't just identify non-conformities: I help you prioritize the real issues, distinguish critical deviations from secondary ones, and transform a diagnosis into a realistic roadmap, compatible with your project, quality, and schedule constraints.

I intervene in particular for compliance audits, maturity assessments, supplier assessments, development process reviews, gap analyses, milestone preparations, remediation plans, compliance roadmaps, and automotive to aeronautics transition support.

I am particularly relevant when you need a credible, structured, and decision-oriented external perspective, capable of bridging the gap between requirements, expected deliverables, and the reality of your teams' execution.
