ABOUT STUART COWIE

I help Chief Executives, their teams and supply-chains, improve business, operations and engineering in complex and critical infrastructure. A 30-year career journey - Aircraft engineering; Air Traffic Control projects; IT & Telecoms consulting; and Smart City delivery - perfect prep to deliver the Big Ideas ahead. Digital Transformation may not be “rocket science” - aside from the new “space ports” which include some -)- but is precise and accurate coordination of: Change Management - User Experience & Enterprise Architecture - IT Service Management - Technical Project Management Smart Infrastructure - Digital Twins & Asset Management - Enterprise Asset Software - Data Management & Analytics Digital Infrastructure - Control Rooms & Systems - Telecoms & Networking - Data Centres & Cloud Services And so it is that I lead a talented team, and work with incredible Change Managers, Data Scientists and IT Designers. And we are integrating air, sea and land transport with digital technology to meet real Triple Bottom Line (People, Planet & Profit) challenges. Around the world my team is helping CIOs, CDOs and CTOs achieve their objectives. They are helping with: travel; logistics; and communication needs that have never been greater. They are increasing access to opportunity and reducing carbon emissions. They are ensuring the inter-dependence of transportation and telecommunication needs are met; and promoting joined-up thinking in the synergies of their development. In short, the teams digital transformation is enabling: better journeys, greener operations and sustainable organisations. “We are all technology companies now”. It’s truly worthwhile, bringing the latest technical and commercial practice together. New digital equipment, software and services mixed with evolving transport tools and techniques is fascinating. Improvements that compound, alongside changing business and technology environments that surprise lead to genuine invention. And the Big Ideas? Well with vision and strategy, definition and planning they can result in genuine innovation from which we all benefit. Enthusiastic clients, and incredible teams, around the world makes the hard work a pleasure. And being able to “re-charge my [stoicism/optimism/pragmatism] batteries” in the great outdoors within easy reach when home for the weekend makes it all worthwhile. Just a ‘Digital Transformation Practitioner … outdoing IT’.
