Skills


With over 25 years of experience, I specialize in guiding organizations through complex digital transformation journeys. As the founder of BAS4ICT SRL (est. 2014), I've supported public and private sector clients — including the European Commission, McKinsey & Company, and SWIFT — aligning their operations with strategic, regulatory, and digital imperatives.

I bring a unique combination of strategic insight, operational excellence, and hands-on implementation using PM², Agile, BABOK, and BTM² methodologies. My work is deeply rooted in the EU digital policy landscape, including GDPR, NIS2, DORA, CRA, and Digital Decade 2030 priorities. Whether it's aligning systems with regulatory frameworks, driving innovation, or embedding sustainability into ICT operations, I provide tailored, high-impact solutions.
Key areas of expertise:
  • Digital & Business Transformation
  • Strategic Planning & Change Management
  • ICT Modernization & Architecture
  • EU Regulatory Alignment (GDPR, NIS2, DORA, CRA)
  • Sustainable ICT & Green Transition
  • Data-Driven Decision Support & Portfolio Management
My approach is collaborative, policy-aware, and results-oriented, focused on enabling long-term success, not just short-term fixes. I work in English and French, and Dutch inquiries are welcome.

Let's connect if you need a trusted partner to support innovation, compliance, and digital excellence at scale.
