Ewoud Huig

I joined BearingPoint in 1996. I have over 30 years' professional experience. I am a Partner and the Industrial Manufacturing Leader.

I discovered lean management 25 years ago while on assignment for a subcontractor in the automotive industry.  Drawing on that experience, I have supported a number of companies in rolling out this sustainable and long-term corporate philosophy.  Then I adapted and deployed those methods to raise the engineering efficiency bar in non-industrial functions (HR, finance, supply chain, etc.) and IT divisions.

I cover a variety of sectors, including banking, insurance and the public sector.  I often carry out international assignments, and my Dutch nationality is often an asset. I am capable of adapting to the multicultural workforces found in international companies.

My main missions are as follows:

• Crisis management
• Lean management
• Operational excellence
• IS definition and deployment

I am also a certified Green Belt and Black Belt, and I spend part of my time on training in this particular area.

I am a regular contributor to the Group's industry blog:

Before I joined BearingPoint, I spent eight years working on operational excellence in industry.
