About · Okan Türay

Plans are models.
I keep them honest.

I have spent more than fifteen years doing one thing properly: making Oracle Primavera P6 EPPM work for organisations that deliver serious capital projects. That has meant requirements workshops and environment design, installations and configuration, documentation and training, integrations and data migrations, reporting stacks, and the audits that reveal why none of the above is working. Oracle certified me as a Primavera P6 EPPM Certified Implementation Specialist — the credential in the panel is verifiable on Credly.

My background is mathematics — I studied it at Bilkent University on a full scholarship. That is not decoration on a project-controls CV: schedule networks, float calculation, earned value and portfolio analytics are mathematical objects, and treating them as such is the difference between a report that looks busy and a report that tells you something true.

What I think makes the practice useful is that it spans both sides of the room. I can sit with planners and argue about schedule logic, float behaviour and earned value method — then walk down the corridor and debug a WebLogic deployment, write a REST integration, or work out why the database is struggling with a fifty-thousand-activity project. Most P6 problems live exactly on that seam, and they stay unsolved when the functional people and the technical people can only describe them to each other.

The work has taken me across four sectors. Mega-infrastructure in Türkiye, including the Osmangazi Bridge and Galataport. Leading Turkish contractors and developers. Türkiye's top-tier defence programmes, where confidentiality discipline is part of the job description. And Middle East energy and giga-scale construction, including national-operator capital programmes and gigaprojects in Saudi Arabia. Some of it directly for the client, some through leading capital-projects consultancies — an arrangement I keep open.

I work independently and remain deliberately independent: I do not resell licences and I have no vendor quota to meet, so when the honest answer is "you do not need a new platform, you need three weeks of reconfiguration", that is the answer you get. I work in English and Turkish, remote-first from Antalya, on site where the phase calls for it.
