About Matthieu Samuel

I help companies transform their IT, AI, Cloud, or ERP projects into concrete results: clear scoping, solid governance, team coordination, and controlled delivery.

What I bring is my ability to bridge the gap between business needs, technical teams, and management, even in complex and international environments. I am experienced in managing programs with multiple stakeholders, risks, dependencies, budgets, and tight deadlines.

I mainly focus on digital transformation, AI, data, ITSM, project governance, and process improvement. My deliverables are concrete: roadmaps, project plans, executive reporting, KPIs, steering committees, business cases, risk management, and deployment plans.
