Phil Bowman - Consultant & Strategic Partner
I bring 30 years of automotive experience spanning engineering, quality, and supplier performance. My career began in test and development at Brose, followed by a global customer quality role at DENSO Sales UK, where I supported 15 plants supplying Toyota UK.
At Jaguar Land Rover, I spent a decade as Supplier Technical Assistance Manager, leading launch readiness and performance improvement across a wide range of components — from headlamps to roof systems. I worked hands-on with suppliers to ensure delivery, quality, and process capability.
Most recently, I’ve partnered with Dassault Systèmes to lead digital transformation programs focused on supplier collaboration and launch execution. I guide agile squads through discovery, development, and deployment of solutions that drive transparency, speed, and control across the supply chain.
The core strengths I bring to every consultancy engagement:

With over 25 years’ experience spanning procurement, supply chain leadership, and business transformation, I bring a unique blend of commercial insight and change management expertise.
My first 15 years were spent leading strategic sourcing, supplier development, and global procurement across the automotive sector — working with industry leaders including Jaguar Land Rover, Aston Martin, Tata Motors, Kongsberg Automotive, and Sino International Products.

Over the past decade, my focus has evolved toward process excellence and organisational change, where I’ve led major transformation programmes to improve efficiency, compliance, and cross-functional alignment. I specialise in mapping and redesigning processes, embedding quality management systems (ISO9001, IATF16949), and supporting leadership teams through change adoption.
