- Over the past 25 years I have acquired a broad IT and business background in architecture as well as consulting roles within SAP dominated IT landscapes.
- In recent years I did a lot of research into Digital architectures, Distributed (IoT) architectures and Cloud Computing. This has resulted in the development of a “Digital Strategy Framework” which includes a practical digital reference architecture and a set of architecture guardrails to ease the planning and implementation of digital capabilities.
- I am the co-inventor of the Common Reference Architecture mode or CORA model, which helps in getting control over the IT landscape in a Hybrid environment and delivers a predictable, repeatable and risk-aware solution design (http://www.coramodel.com)
- I am a member within the Open Group Big Data forum in which he contributes by developing standards like the Open Business Data Lake standard (O-BDL).
- I am one of the few IAF level 3 certified Enterprise Architects within the Netherlands. In this role I am currently working for Unilever within different business functions in which I assess and design (cloud based) data driven target architectures and road maps.
- I regularly share my opinion on the Capgemini Expert Forum with regards to architecture related topics.
