About Ludovic

I help engineering and industrial teams improve their performance by optimizing their processes, tools, and data utilization.

Expert in electrical harness design and embedded systems, with over 30 years of experience (Renault, PSA, etc.), I master CATIA V5 Electrical environments (EHI, EHA, EHF, EWR) and the entire technical cycle, from architecture to industrialization.

My added value lies in a rare dual expertise: harness business expertise and custom tool development (VBA, VB.NET), enabling task automation, data reliability, and concrete productivity gains.

I intervene in particular on:
• Design and integration of complex electrical harnesses
• Automation under CATIA (macros, internal tools)
• Optimization of Engineering Office processes
• Structuring and exploitation of technical data

Pragmatic, results-oriented approach, adapted to demanding industrial environments.
