Independent Planning & Decision Advisory for Complex Projects

Capella Consulting supports organisations operating in technically complex and regulated environments. Many project difficulties are not caused by effort, but by uncertainty, misalignment and unclear priorities.

We provide structured planning, schedule analysis and independent perspective to help leaders understand risks, evaluate options and move forward with confidence. Our experience includes airport infrastructure, hospitality and pharmaceutical projects from development through construction, testing and handover.

About Us

Supporting Leaders in Making Clear, Responsible Decisions.

Our work is grounded in real leadership experience—building teams, navigating uncertainty, and making decisions with high stakes. Today, I support leaders and organisations facing similar challenges.

Before founding Capella Consulting B.V., I spent years leading teams and communities in fast-changing, high-end construction environments, including the aviation and pharma industries, and, more specifically, emerging digital and decentralised ecosystems.

Those experiences taught me that leadership is rarely about knowing more; it is about thinking clearly under pressure, communicating honestly, and taking responsibility for decisions. I now work with executives, managers, and leadership teams who carry similar responsibilities. 

Many leaders operate without a neutral sounding board. My role is to provide that space: structured reflection, challenge, and clarity, so that decisions are thoughtful and leadership is consistent and effective.

Experiences from the Leaders We Work

j zwiers
Salih is a very professional, open, very social and hard working colleague. Impressed by the way he remains calm and professional, always prepared and taking it a step further there where needed. We have worked together on a international project at Schiphol Netherlands, building a new pier building for our client. During this 3,5 year period Salih was of great value to the team and showed great commitment. Thanks to him we were able to manage, adjust and control planning there where needed, up- and downstream. He is a true professional, making the team comfortable and guides them in the good way. It was a big pleasure working with him, he became a very special colleague to me.

I worked with Salih on the Abu Dhabi Midfield Terminal Project, where I was Electrical Works Project Manager and he served as Planning Lead, reporting to the project management team. This was a highly complex, fast-paced aviation project, and Salih played a key role in managing the master schedule, progress reporting, management reporting, and coordination across multiple contractors. He demonstrated strong planning expertise, solid analytical skills, and the ability to clearly communicate schedule risks and recovery strategies. He was professional, reliable, and composed under pressure, and his structured approach to planning and reporting added real value to the project leadership team. I would confidently recommend him for any senior planning or project controls roles on major airport projects.
