Why AFF
The Data & AI advisory market is crowded. What is rare is an advisor who came up through the Hyperion EPM ecosystem — planning, consolidation, close, Essbase — and then spent 19+ years at Oracle leading Data Platform, Analytics and Big Data strategy across APAC.
That combination matters because most AI initiatives stall at the same place: the data doesn't reconcile to the numbers finance trusts. We speak both languages.
A selection of enterprises across APAC — in financial services, retail, transport, education and the public sector — that Alain has worked with on EPM, Data Platform, Analytics and AI solutions.
Engagements delivered in Oracle regional solutions roles. Company names are used to indicate industry experience and are the trademarks of their respective owners.
