01 · Proof of concept · AI / ML

A first machine-learning pilot for retail demand forecasting.

Energy & fuel retail · National retail network

97%forecast accuracy across 550+ locations
Challenge
Forecasting across a national retail network relied on manual effort and couldn't keep up with demand variability.
What I did
Framed the use case with the business, set up the proof of concept with data and IT teams, defined success criteria and built the path from pilot to network-wide rollout.
Outcome
The organisation's first ML initiative, proving value at network scale and creating a template for future AI use cases.

How I can help

Four ways to work together.

01

Proof-of-concept sprints

Test an AI, ML or automation idea on real data in weeks, with clear success criteria and a go/no-go to scale.

  • Use-case discovery & prioritisation
  • PoC setup with your data and IT teams
  • Business case and scale-up plan
02

Digital product delivery

Interim product owner or programme lead to take a digital product from roadmap to launch and adoption.

  • Roadmap, scope & vendor management
  • Agile delivery with cross-functional teams
  • Launch readiness and adoption metrics
03

Transformation & change

Large rollouts that stay stable and get adopted, from ERP moves to multi-country platform deployments.

  • Cutover & hypercare governance
  • Change management & training
  • Operating model design
04

Process excellence

Lean Six Sigma discovery that finds where time goes and removes it, then automates what's left.

  • Discovery workshops & process mapping
  • Workflow and Power Platform automation
  • Power BI reporting & KPIs

Approach

Principle 01

Start with the problem, not the tool.

Technology is the easy part. I start by understanding the business question, the people and the numbers that define success.

Principle 02

Prove it small. Then scale.

A focused proof of concept beats a two-year plan. Real data, real users and a clear decision at the end.

Principle 03

Adoption is the deliverable.

A launch is not the finish line. Change management, training and hypercare are what turn a release into results.

About

From master data to the boardroom.

I'm Radu, a digital transformation and product leader. I started in sales and analytics, then spent years making global processes work at HP before leading teams at Pfizer, Oracle, NEPI Rockcastle, OMV Petrom and now E.ON.

That path gave me something rare: I understand the data, the process and the people, and I know how they have to move together for change to stick.
