About me
Tom Kilcommons leads technical client engagements at Newton, a consulting firm that puts 100% of its fees at risk against measurable client results. Alongside delivery, Tom has been instrumental in building Newton's AI capability programme — designing the developer environments, tooling, and engineering pathways that enable operations specialists to build production-grade digital tools using AI-assisted development. His work spans supply chain simulation, procurement AI, and strategic decision support, with deep expertise in simulation, optimisation, and machine learning. Tom focuses on the practical challenge of scaling technical capability across teams who weren't trained as software engineers — designing the approaches that turn early experimentation into sustained, deliverable impact.
