Hey, I’m Sivani
I lead programs that transform ideas into impactful business outcomes.
About Me
I’m a Program Manager with over seven years of experience leading digital transformation initiatives for global retail and consumer brands. I began my career as a Business Analyst and later as a Functional Consultant, implementing enterprise SaaS and on-premise solutions that modernized legacy systems and improved operational efficiency. Today, I combine my consulting background and program management expertise to drive large-scale technology initiatives that deliver measurable business impact.
Expertise
Digital & Supply Chain Transformation
I specialize in leading digital transformation programs that modernize retail and supply chain operations. With hands-on experience implementing Oracle Retail SaaS and on-premise solutions, I’ve helped global CPG and lifestyle brands transition from legacy systems to integrated, data-driven platforms — improving visibility, accuracy, and scalability.
Program Management
I bring structure and clarity to complex technology initiatives. From roadmap planning to agile delivery, I lead cross-functional teams, align stakeholders, and ensure every program drives measurable business outcomes. My focus is on execution excellence, collaboration, and delivering results that last.
