Arc Chariot Consulting was founded on a simple belief: ERP transformations should empower businesses, not disrupt them. Yet over 70% of ERP implementations fail to deliver on their promise — and our founder, Vladimir Lezhnev, learned that truth firsthand.

His career began in supply chain management, leading regional operations across the Commonwealth of Independent States for a British company. With a master's degree in supply chain and years on the logistics front line, he understood how quickly efficiency can break down when systems fail. That perspective was reinforced when he witnessed an ERP implementation in Poland spiral out of control, creating operational risk and financial loss.

Rather than walk away, Vladimir set out to understand why ERP projects fail so often, and how to prevent it. When an opportunity arose to lead the Swedish phase of the same program, he embraced it with one goal: to turn uncertainty into predictability.

Leading the Swedish roll-out, Vladimir rebuilt the approach from the ground up. He learned that every culture requires a different path, and that real progress comes from listening across the organization, from executives to warehouse teams. That became his “fast consensus” approach: inclusive, practical, and built for speed. It worked. And it became the strongest implementation in the company's European network.

Vladimir went on to lead multi-country ERP programs across Scandinavia, refining his methods and seeing a clear industry pattern: too many consultants and system integrators treat business transformations like a box-ticking exercise. Projects are called “on track” while operations tell a different story.

Driven to do better, he founded Arc Chariot Consulting: an independent ERP transformation partner grounded in accountability, transparency, and alignment from strategy to execution. The name reflects this philosophy. “Arc” represents direction, vision, and the strategic north star. “Chariot” symbolizes disciplined, practical execution that turns strategy into motion.

Today, armed with a decade of expertise, Arc Chariot Consulting helps industrial organizations achieve their ERP transformation goals across the globe. Through results-driven leadership and deep strategic alignment, we ensure systems empower people rather than overwhelm them — protecting operations, preserving culture, and delivering the outcomes that matter, turning the most complex programs into predictable results.
