About Me

Bridging Technology
& Business Strategy

I'm Rodrigo Marques, MBA — an IT and Management Consultant with 25+ years of global experience driving digital transformation, ERP programs, and operational change across industries including Aerospace, Manufacturing, Agribusiness, Life Sciences, and Consumer Products.

I work with organizations to maximize their systems, streamline their processes, and align technology investments with business outcomes. My background spans solution architecture, delivery leadership, and client advisory — from defining strategy to owning critical design decisions all the way through execution. I'm equally effective as a senior individual contributor and as the person leading cross-functional teams across geographies.

Key areas of depth include SAP S/4HANA transformations, supply chain planning, digital manufacturing, and enterprise integrations. Beyond consulting, I build products — WIP, SalaryUs, and OptimaFlow® — because I believe the best advisors stay close to building things.
