Global Oil & Energy client. Owned strategy, requirements, vendor evaluation, and 10+ enterprise programmes end-to-end with full audit traceability.

Outcome 99.9% system continuity  ·  100% remediation closure

The challenge

  • Authored BRD, FRD, HLD, LLD, and RAID logs for each programme workstream.
  • Coordinated cross-functional teams of 20+ across engineering, security operations, and third-party contractors.
