FuturMaster launches its North American operations, marking a new step toward global leadership in supply chain planning

Paris, France — December 17, 2025 — FuturMaster, a global supply chain planning solution vendor, has officially opened its North American office, marking a significant step in the company’s global expansion. With more than half of the worldwide supply chain planning market located in the United States and Canada, establishing a direct presence brings the company closer to the organizations it serves.

Two experienced leaders have been appointed to drive this new chapter: 

• Jason Albrecht will oversee commercial activities across the region. His experience as a sales director and his understanding of the U.S. market will be instrumental in strengthening FuturMaster’s local presence and accelerating growth. 

• Pierre-Julien Buard joins as Director of Pre-Sales. After more than a decade at FuturMaster across France, Singapore, and the United States, and subsequent roles at major supply chain planning providers, he brings both continuity and fresh perspective to the North American organization. 

‍

The new office is based in Austin, Texas, a strategic choice for its strong supply chain talent pool and dynamic technology ecosystem. As part of its first steps in the region, the leadership team attended the Gartner Supply Chain Planning Summit in Denver, CO, engaging with industry leaders and validating strong interest in FuturMaster’s capabilities. 

This expansion follows two major developments for the company: its acquisition by Sagard Private Equity and the integration of the PlaniSense scheduling solution, reinforcing its ability to offer a unified planning and scheduling platform. 

"North America sets the pace for global supply chain planning. Companies here need clarity, discipline, and the ability to adapt fast. This is precisely what we deliver. With a local presence, we are ready to stand beside organizations in this market and prove the value we bring." 
— Yacine Zeroual, CEO of FuturMaster 

With its North American launch, FuturMaster strengthens its commitment to helping organizations navigate complexity, align decisions, and deliver measurable performance at scale.
