About Frederico

I help industrial companies restore operational performance and improve profitability within 3 to 6 months.

Acting as an Interim COO or hands-on transformation lead, I identify hidden inefficiencies and implement concrete actions that typically generate 10–25% performance gains.

My focus is not on recommendations, but on execution — delivering measurable financial impact on productivity, cost structure, and EBITDA.

I work with CEOs, COOs, and Private Equity-backed companies facing performance challenges, scaling issues, or operational complexity.

Typical outcomes:

+10% to +25% productivity improvement
Significant cost reduction
Measurable EBITDA increase
Stabilized operations and execution discipline

Approach:

Rapid diagnostic (2–4 weeks)
Structured execution (3–6 months)
Hands-on leadership and team alignment

I engage on a project basis or as Interim COO / Operations Director.

If you are facing operational performance challenges or need to accelerate execution, feel free to reach out for an initial discussion.
