● WHO WE ARE

Who We Are. And Where We Make the Difference.

Most consulting firms leave when the presentation is finished. Most interim managers are not scalable and lack the necessary background support and competency. Amadeus Consulting was built around the connection of these two worlds.

We combine the strategic perspective and structured problem-solving of a specialized consultancy with the operational responsibility and hands-on execution of experienced interim leaders. This perspective is rooted in first-hand management experience, including our own. We know what it means to take responsibility for people, performance, decisions and results, not just to advise those who do.

The difference is not one isolated capability. It is the combination: we understand the situation from experience, mobilize the right expertise quickly, and stay accountable through implementation.

● WHAT SETS US APART

Four Principles Behind Every Mandate

01

The Execution Creates the Value.

We do not stop after identifying weaknesses or presenting ideas. We stay involved until decisions have been translated into action and the new structures, processes, and behaviors work in day-to-day operations.

Depending on the mandate, we work alongside the client team, lead a program, take an interim management role, or assume direct responsibility for implementation. The objective is sustainable value: results that remain after the assignment ends.

02

Global Reach. Boutique Agility.

Large consultancies offer scale, but their delivery models can involve additional layers, overhead and unnecessary cost, while also becoming slower or more standardized. Individual interim managers offer proximity and speed, but cannot easily scale beyond one role or discipline.

Amadeus Consulting combines a focused senior core with a trusted network of experts and regional partners. We assemble the capabilities required by the situation, remain agile in decision-making, and keep accountability clear. International reach does not come at the cost of personal access or speed.

03

Management Experience Meets Advisory Excellence.

Our perspective has been tested in management roles, consulting assignments, transformation programs, organizational development, negotiations, and coaching. We know how organizations operate under pressure because our people have carried responsibility in comparable situations.

This combination allows us to do more than design a target state. We can structure complex situations, lead teams through change, challenge assumptions, facilitate difficult decisions, and support leaders as new ways of working become established.

04

Committed to the Client Objective.

We do not put our own products, methodologies, or staffing model ahead of the client objective. We begin with the outcome the organization needs, then select the approach, expertise, and level of responsibility that best fit the situation.

Our commitment is to the overall objective, not to extending a predetermined scope. If the answer requires advice, we advise. If it requires leadership, we lead. If it requires implementation, we implement.

● THE AMADEUS DIFFERENCE

A senior, agile execution partner that combines consulting quality, management experience, organizational development, coaching, and international reach to deliver sustainable results.

● STARTING POINTS

When Clients Bring Us In

Clients typically bring us in from one of two starting points: a concrete operational challenge that needs to be stabilized, or a concrete goal that requires structural change and disciplined execution.

STARTING POINT 01

A Concrete Challenge

✓
A critical supplier or material shortage is putting delivery at risk.
✓
A procurement, supply chain, quality, or operations leadership role is vacant or needs immediate reinforcement.
✓
A cost-reduction program is not generating a sufficient or sustainable pipeline.
✓
A ramp-up, relocation, or transformation program is losing momentum.
✓
Processes, responsibilities, systems, or reporting structures no longer fit the scale of the business.
✓
A team needs direction, capability building, or support in a demanding change situation.
STARTING POINT 02

A Concrete Goal

✓
Design and implement a new target operating model across functions or locations.
✓
Build or reorganize a procurement, supply chain, quality, or operations function.
✓
Open a new supplier region, localize production, or reduce regional and currency dependencies.
✓
Create a more resilient supply network and improve planning, forecasting, inventory, and risk management.
✓
Enter a new market, build local structures, or develop access to customers and partners.
✓
Strengthen leadership, negotiation, category management, and organizational capability.

The situations are different, but the first step is the same: establish what is actually happening, identify what must change, and define the level of authority and execution capacity required to deliver the result.

● OUR APPROACH

Judgment. Access. Delivery.

Three things determine whether an operations or transformation mandate creates sustainable value. They are also the practical expression of what sets us apart.

Read More →
01/

Judgment

Experience That Recognizes the Real Situation

We understand the situation because our team has worked through comparable assignments from positions of real responsibility. Our people have led operations, procurement, supply chain, production, quality, transformation, organizational development, and critical negotiations. They know the pressure of maintaining daily operations while changing the organization at the same time.

✓
Management and consulting experience in one team
✓
Organizational development and coaching capability
✓
No junior-only delivery model and no framework applied without context
02/

Access

Trusted Relationships That Make Action Possible

Access is the difference between an attractive plan and an executable plan. Over many years, our team and network have built working relationships with suppliers, operations leaders, functional specialists, and regional partners across international markets.

✓
International reach with boutique agility
✓
Experts and partners selected for the situation
✓
Personal accountability remains with Amadeus Consulting
03/

Delivery

Ownership from Decision to Sustainable Result

Delivery is where our model differs most clearly from traditional advisory work. We do not consider the job finished when the weaknesses have been described or the concept has been approved. We work with the client through implementation, and where appropriate we lead or execute the change ourselves.

✓
Hands-on execution and implementation responsibility
✓
One accountable lead from analysis to handover
✓
Focus on sustainable value and capability transfer
WHY THE COMBINATION MATTERS

Judgment without access may identify the right direction but cannot open the necessary doors. Access without delivery creates introductions but no lasting change. Delivery without judgment risks executing the wrong solution. The combination allows clients to plan around the work rather than hope that separate advisors, managers, and specialists will connect the pieces.

● SELECTED USE CASES

Selected Use Cases

The following anonymized examples show how Judgment, Access, and Delivery work together in practice.

OPERATIONS AND SUPPLY CHAIN EXCELLENCE

Structured Cost Reduction for a German Intralogistics Manufacturer

5%
Reduction in addressable spend
SITUATION

Rising material costs were putting pressure on margins across a fragmented supplier base, with limited transparency on pricing and purchasing structures.

APPROACH

We consolidated, structured and analyzed the available purchasing data, clustered spend into relevant category and commodity groups, and benchmarked key cost positions. Based on the findings, we launched a structured negotiation campaign, challenging incumbent suppliers through benchmarking while qualifying alternative and new sources.

RESULT

A 5% reduction in addressable spend, achieved without compromising delivery reliability or quality.

INTERIM AND PROJECT LEADERSHIP

Interim Supply Chain Leadership for a Global Technology Provider

SITUATION

A global provider of catalysis and decarbonization technology needed senior supply chain leadership to steer a critical phase without a permanent hire in place.

APPROACH

We stepped into the leadership role, took ownership of day-to-day operations and key decisions, and built the structures the function needed to stand on its own.

RESULT

Continuity was maintained throughout the transition, and the supply chain function continued to operate effectively after the mandate ended.

● OUR PEOPLE

Consulting Is a People Business

Clients do not experience an organization chart. They experience the people who understand the situation, make decisions with them, and stay accountable when implementation becomes difficult. Amadeus Consulting is built around senior leadership, a focused consulting team, and a trusted expert network assembled to fit each mandate.
