About Me
For nearly three decades, I’ve helped enterprises across the globe transform SAP from a cost centre into a true business advantage — and now, with AI, the opportunity has never been greater.
From Tokyo with Shiseido to Silicon Valley with Hewlett Packard, I’ve seen first-hand how SAP holds immense possibilities for enterprises — often far beyond what they imagined possible. Today, AI and automation are amplifying that potential, unlocking hidden millions in value trapped inside core systems.
As the published author of three SAP ERP books — translated into English, Mandarin, and Spanish by Osborne McGrawHill — my work has reached tens of thousands of SAP-driven companies worldwide. And no matter the industry or geography, I’ve found the same truth: enterprises are sitting on untapped value, often just a few strategic levers away in architecture, process design, automation, or AI.
That’s why I founded Emphasys — to help enterprises streamline processes, automate what slows them down, and design architectures that scale. Today, we combine SAP expertise with AI-driven optimisation to deliver lower costs, faster transformations, and enterprise systems that deliver measurable business outcomes.
How I Help Enterprises
Trusted by Global Enterprises
Over the last 27 years, I’ve had the privilege of partnering with more than 20 world-class enterprises across 36 countries — including Toyota, Hewlett Packard, Honeywell, Shiseido, AGL, and Schneider Electric. Each engagement has been an opportunity to design smarter architectures, streamline critical processes, and unlock hidden value from SAP.
These experiences have not only shaped my expertise but also reinforced my belief that with the right approach, SAP can be transformed from a complex system into a powerful engine of business growth.
Global Transformation
"In 2019, I initiated FOCUS (First, One Connected and Unified Shiseido), a multi-year global business transformation program aimed at standardizing data, optimizing processes, and enhancing analytics. At the heart of FOCUS is the implementation of a single global instance of SAP S/4HANA, connecting people and technology across six regions and servicing customers in over 120 countries.
We partnered with Emphasys to optimize the enterprise architecture and integration of this highly complex S/4HANA program, which involved high transaction volumes and coordination across multiple time zones. Emphasys brought deep expertise and the practical know-how (e.g. middleware, coding, sizing, BTP, etc.) to optimize our technical SAP system landscape. Their team’s dedication and professionalism were instrumental in ensuring seamless collaboration and smooth operations throughout the transformation.
Emphasys provided expert advice and technical solution optimization that helped us align global systems, streamline processes, and reduce sales order processing time by 69%—a significant efficiency gain. Their contribution was vital to the success of FOCUS and to advancing Shiseido’s ambition to become a truly data-driven, globally connected organization."
