Today, he leads Supplier Strategic Development (SSD) for the Americas at Alstom, where his mission is to enhance supplier performance and maturity through a balanced approach that combines strategic direction with hands-on operational execution (including supplier audits, root cause analysis, corrective action management, performance tracking, and direct collaboration with suppliers and cross-functional teams to drive measurable results).
