Available for advisory engagements, implementation projects, and strategic AI transformation programmes.
Based in Waterloo, Ontario — serving clients globally.
Over 150 NSPB implementations delivered as Consulting Technical Manager
at NetSuite — spanning every major vertical and complexity level. From
initial scoping and gap analysis through go-live and knowledge transfer,
each engagement is built around a clear statement of work and a solution
architecture tailored to the client's planning cycle.
Solution specialisations:

A 25-year track record across Oracle's complete EPM portfolio — from
on-premise Hyperion Planning and Essbase through to cloud-native PBCS and
EPBCS. Engagements range from greenfield implementations and major version
migrations to long-term managed services and performance tuning.
→PBCS & EPBCS — full lifecycle cloud EPM: financial, workforce, capital, and project planning modules with narrative reporting.
→Essbase — application architecture, block storage / ASO tuning, calc script optimisation, and ETL integration for high-volume multidimensional models.
→Profitability & Cost Management — activity-based costing, allocation modelling, and transfer pricing for complex organisational structures.
→EPM Managed Services — onshore, onsite, and remote tiered support with SLAs, on-call coverage, and business-cycle guarantees.
→Notable clients — major airport authorities (treasury bond forecasting, capital & construction planning), Canadian airline operators, national retail chains, and chemical manufacturers.

AI & ML for Financial Planning
Combining two decades of EPM expertise with applied machine learning —
delivering intelligent planning systems that go beyond static models.
Published author of Machine Learning for Financial Planning, Budgeting,
and Forecasting and inventor of a patented Markov Decision Process–based
forecasting agent, with production deployments in airport finance, retail, and capital markets.
→Intelligent Performance Management — embedding ML models directly into planning cycles for self-adjusting forecasts, anomaly flagging, and automated variance commentary.
→Auto-Predict & Advanced Predictions — deploying Oracle's statistical engine alongside custom ML models for multi-horizon forecasting with confidence intervals.
→Markov Decision Process agents — reinforcement-learning agents that model financial planning as sequential decision problems — used in long-term debt forecasting and capital allocation.
→Financial data science — graph theory, Monte Carlo simulation, scenario optimisation, and applied data science techniques integrated with Oracle and NetSuite platforms.

Enterprise AI Strategy & Leadership
Modern organisations face a widening leadership gap: senior technologists who
can deliver at scale but struggle to translate their expertise into boardroom
value. Effective AI leadership means operating fluently across both domains —
driving transformation from the inside out.
What this service delivers:
→Business outcome translation — turn complex technical programmes into clear P&L impact, ROI models, and executive narratives that secure funding and alignment.
→Enterprise-scale AI adoption — lead organisation-wide AI initiatives with financial discipline, ethical governance frameworks, and responsible deployment standards.
→Board & investor communication — structure and deliver technology strategy in the language of the boardroom: revenue, risk, and ROI — building the confidence of senior stakeholders.
→Digital transformation leadership — manage enterprise-scale change programmes that integrate AI into core business processes without disrupting operational continuity.
→High-stakes decision making — structure rapid, confident decisions under uncertainty — from investment prioritisation to crisis response in complex AI deployments.

Agentic Workflows & MLOps
Agentic AI systems are redefining what automation can achieve. Unlike rule-based
workflows, multi-agent architectures reason, plan, and act autonomously across
complex, multi-step processes — from FP&A pipelines to autonomous close cycles
and self-correcting forecasts.
What this service delivers:
→Agentic workflow design — architect multi-agent systems that coordinate LLMs, tools, and data sources to execute end-to-end business processes autonomously and reliably.
→MLOps & platform engineering — build production-grade ML infrastructure: model versioning, drift monitoring, retraining pipelines, and deployment governance that scales with the enterprise.
→FinOps for AI — optimise the unit economics of AI infrastructure, aligning cloud spend, GPU allocation, and inference costs to P&L targets and board-level financial strategy.
→Responsible AI implementation — embed fairness, auditability, and compliance into agent architectures from the ground up — not as an afterthought.

Build with Agentic AI
Move beyond strategy into execution. Design and ship agentic AI systems,
semi-autonomous operational workflows, and AI-native products — with
principled persona frameworks that keep agents safe, auditable, and aligned
with your organisation's values.
Agentic AI Product Design
End-to-end design of AI agent systems — from capability scoping and tool selection through multi-agent orchestration, memory architecture, and safe autonomous action in production environments.
Semi-Autonomous Company Deployment
Architect organisations where AI agents handle routine operations autonomously while humans retain strategic control. Covers operational handoffs, exception escalation protocols, and governance frameworks for AI-heavy business units.
Autonomous Company Tasks & Workflows
Map and deploy AI agents to own complete business workflows end-to-end — from data ingestion and decision-making through to execution and reporting. Covers task decomposition, agent handoff protocols, exception handling, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints that scale from individual task automation to fully autonomous business units.
Force Field Framework — Ethical AI Persona Development
A systematic methodology for designing AI agent personas through competing forces: capability boundaries, ethical constraints, brand voice, domain authority, and escalation triggers. Embeds responsible AI principles — fairness, transparency, and accountability — directly into the agent's identity so ethical behaviour is structural, not an afterthought. The result is agents that stay in-character under adversarial prompting, behave consistently across contexts, and remain fully auditable at every decision point.
