Key Skills & Services
In the early part of my career I was involved in the design, programming and implementation of Sales, Purchase and Nominal Ledgers, Payroll, Sales and Purchase Order Processing, Stock Control, BOM and Assembly Costing software, as well as Subscription Membership and Benefit Payment systems.
This was using a variety of Languages and platforms and has given me the experience necessary to fully understand both the business and the technical aspects of providing software solutions for companies.
This now enables me to offer a full life cycle project management service, from initial investigation and proposal through to training, implementation and support.
Career Background
35 years in Industry, the first 10 with various corporates and the last 25 serving the SME marketplace. Formed a company to develop bespoke and package applications which resulted in successful software packages for two vertical markets. After 30 years in the Midlands supporting clients scattered all over the UK, I have recently returned to South Wales to build a local client base.
Industry sectors
Wide range of SMEs including Metal Stockholders, General Manufacturing (BOM and Assembly Costing), Recruitment Agencies, Subscription Membership Organizations, Benefit Payment Organizations, Motor Manufacturing, and Solicitors back office systems.
Qualifications
B.Tech (Electronics). Accredited Associate of the Institute for Independent Business.
Comments
Extensive experience in understanding the I.T. needs of small and medium sized businesses and have developed a hands on approach to satisfying these needs. More customer orientated than technical and with an in depth understanding of front and back office systems, and how to get the best out of them for SMEs.
