Neil Vakil

Business decisions are only as strong as the data behind them. My role is to transform complex operational and financial data into meaningful insights that improve decision-making, optimize business performance, and drive measurable results. As a Senior Business Analyst, I partner with executive leadership and cross-functional teams across finance, supply chain, operations, sales, and IT to identify business challenges, develop analytical solutions, and lead initiatives that improve efficiency, visibility, and performance. My experience spans business intelligence, supply chain analytics, financial reporting, KPI development, inventory optimization, process automation, and operational strategy. I have designed executive reporting frameworks, automated business processes, developed KPI dashboards, improved inventory visibility, supported financial analysis, and delivered data-driven solutions that enable leaders to make informed decisions. I also collaborate on business technology and AI initiatives, translating operational requirements into practical analytical solutions that support business growth and continuous improvement. Beyond analytics, I enjoy leading projects from concept through implementation by aligning stakeholders, defining business requirements, coordinating cross-functional teams, and ensuring initiatives are delivered with clear business value. I believe successful projects are driven as much by communication, collaboration, and execution as they are by data. I hold a Master’s degree in Engineering & Operations Management and bring expertise in SQL, Advanced Excel, Power Query, KNIME Analytics, ERP systems, and business intelligence tools. My passion lies in connecting business strategy with technology, simplifying complex problems, and building scalable analytical solutions that help organizations operate smarter and make better decisions.
