ABOUT CASPER THIJSSEN

As a seasoned professional, I specialize in program portfolio management and product lifecycle strategy through the use of AI. As the Director of Portfolio Transformation at BD, I led the management of a $1.4 billion product portfolio spanning 17 product lines. My focus is on optimizing portfolio health and enhancing operational efficiency through strategic lifecycle management processes, including the development of Power BI tools and global migration strategies. My recent contributions include driving a 60% portfolio reduction, achieving $22 million in gross profit improvement, and facilitating a one-time $13 million cash release. By fostering cross-functional collaboration and implementing innovative solutions, I have also successfully reduced supplier-related backorders by 80% and increased annual cost savings by 31% across two business platforms. My mission is to deliver measurable outcomes that align with organizational goals and drive sustainable growth.
