> Additional details
The assignment involves analysing supply chain processes, business requirements and operational workflows; investigating Excel models and their underlying business logic; identifying assumptions, dependencies and potential improvements; and translating business needs into functional specifications. Responsibilities also include analysing and consolidating data from multiple systems and Excel files, designing reusable data models, supporting data quality and governance, and collaborating with data engineers on structured data solutions.
The consultant will develop analytical and predictive models for demand forecasting, volume predictions, capacity planning and scenario simulations, and contribute to the functional and data architecture of the future solution. The work includes documenting requirements, data structures and architectural decisions in a functional blueprint, supporting the shift from Excel-based processes to sustainable analytical solutions, and contributing to a scalable, maintainable solution beyond the initial analysis or prototype. The assignment is hands-on and requires ownership and contribution to delivery, rather than involvement limited to documentation or theoretical recommendations.
