Leedarson, a strategic partner and main supplier of LED lighting and smart LED solutions, was the first supplier with whom we launched audits for recycling and zero-waste solutions in 2017. By that time, Jiawei Renewable Energy Co., Ltd. had already switched all of its in-house production to use its own solar farms (ZERO EMISSION). Leedarson had the same goal, so we carried out a comprehensive GAP analysis. At that time, ISO 50001 had not yet been introduced.

Summary

I support industrial companies as an Executive Interim Consultant in successfully delivering complex projects in Product Compliance, Product Stewardship, technical documentation, Environmental Compliance, and digital transformation.

With more than 25 years of industry experience, I combine technical know-how with strategic product management, international supply chain management, and regulatory expertise.

My focus is on developing sustainable compliance strategies, optimizing technical documentation, and digitizing regulatory information processes across the entire product lifecycle.

FMB Tec GmbH provides the organizational and contractual foundation for my consulting and project assignments.

As Managing Director, I personally oversaw all client projects—from the initial analysis and development of workable strategies to operational implementation within interdisciplinary project teams.

Clients benefit from having a direct contact with strong decision-making authority, clear communication, and a consistent focus on results.

Since 2025, I have increasingly supported long-term industrial projects involving international corporations and technology leaders.

Current areas of focus include analyzing regulatory substance information, developing digital compliance structures, and preparing technical documentation for complex systems in line with national and international standards and guidelines.

My projects combine technical understanding, business thinking, and practical implementation skills. I work at both strategic management level and directly with development, procurement, quality, product management, and engineering teams.
