Priya Phadtare
@priyaphadtare
AI/ML-led strategy and product professional driving GTM, cost efficiencies, and transformation across retail and CPG.
What I'm looking for
I’m a strategy and product professional with ~9 years of experience driving AI/ML-led business transformation, supply chain & ops strategy, and operating model re-designs across retail, CPG, and industrial sectors. I focus on turning emerging tech into measurable value—cost savings, working-capital unlocks, and practical GTM momentum—by partnering closely with client CXOs and senior stakeholders.
Most recently, as a Business Strategy Manager at KPMG’s Enterprise Innovation Studio, I structured a partnership ecosystem for AI-native orchestration services and helped co-build an AI finance agentic system with early accounts (J&J, Merck). I also built and launched an AI CFO assistant, delivering 60% cost efficiencies using LLM-based automation (Claude Code). Previously at Accenture, I led end-to-end supply chain strategy engagements (e.g., $90M cost savings for King Power), drove measurable operational improvements with ML-based forecasting (35% fewer DC stockouts), and delivered major modernization and deal wins—earning recognition including KPMG Rising Star (FY’25), Accenture Champion of Quarter (FY’24), and Deloitte fast-track promotion.
