TPP is led and delivered by one person, and that is the point. Twenty-five years across industry leadership and top-tier consulting, 130+ projects executed, more than $20 billion of category spend addressed, and $1.5 billion in savings documented to client P&Ls.
The industry half of that career was spent inside businesses under real pressure: regional procurement leadership for APAC at Mondelez, and senior roles across packaging and manufacturing at Pact Group. Budget owners, boards, plant managers, and suppliers who knew exactly how much leverage they held. The consulting half, at Infosys Portland and through engagements with top-tier strategy firms, was spent where the analysis is world class and the implementation is somebody else's problem.
Both halves taught the same lesson from opposite directions. In industry, the strategy was usually right and the execution capacity was missing. In consulting, the deck was excellent and nobody stayed long enough to land it. The savings that showed up in the accounts were never the ones that looked best in the steering committee pack. They were the ones somebody stayed to implement.
TPP exists to be the party that stays.
