Summary

Secure knowledge. Digitally transform processes. Increase efficiency.

In the process industry, efficient and secure knowledge transfer is one of the biggest challenges – especially when dealing with international contractors and their staff. Different standards, language barriers, and decentralized structures make it difficult to deliver safety-critical and plant-specific information consistently.

I support industrial companies in optimizing, digitizing, and making their knowledge management and onboarding processes sustainably efficient. I combine modern technologies with hands-on solutions to not only transfer knowledge but also secure it in the company for the long term.

Digital knowledge and onboarding platforms for contractors Multilingual, decentralized, and scalable training Real-time documentation & integration into BI and access control systems AI-powered process optimization & anomaly checks for safety briefings Gamification, microlearning & modern e-learning strategies for maximum efficiency

By combining digital tools, AI, and proven knowledge transfer methods, companies can not only raise their safety standards but also make operations more efficient and ease the burden on HSEQ, site security, and operational departments.

With over 13 years of experience in event management and a background in media management, I bring a unique perspective to the digital transformation of knowledge processes. My goal: to make knowledge available, understandable, and sustainably usable – for more safety, efficiency, and successful projects.

Let's revolutionize your knowledge and onboarding processes together! I look forward to connecting with you.
