Colleagues describe him as "Andy has been a key person in the team that helped deliver the work with the Host Broadcaster of a major sporting event recently held in London, delivering the broadcasts to homes around the world. The Host Broadcaster used the connectivity point at one of TelecityGroup’s highly-connected Docklands facilities to distribute live radio and television feeds of the event to hundreds of national broadcasters. This project involved meeting, co-ordinating, and scheduling works not only with our client, but with every single carrier that had been selected to take the World Feed and deliver to the local broadcaster, wherever they were in the World. This meant working with all nationalities and business cultures, against an immovable deadline which had been seven years in the making. Andy worked around the clock, speaking directly with transmission engineers in their local time zones and co-ordinating the works back here in London, and relentlessly troubleshooting a specific issue for one state broadcaster which threatened the success of the event in that specific region. Our client specifically commented on the success of the work just before the event, having received incredibly positive feedback from the heads of engineering, technical operations and telecommunications. In a project which could have very well turned from a showcase into a nightmare, Andy’s hard work, energy, thoroughness and patience was of vital importance, and he helped deliver the broadcast infrastructure for a sporting event which reached an estimated global audience of 4.8 billion people. In the United Kingdom alone, it was biggest national television event since current monitoring systems began, with 51.9m (90% of the UK population) watching at least 15 minutes of the coverage – and thanks to Andy taking the technical lead in delivery, it was as smooth as we could have hoped for." and "Andy is the most professional person i have ever worked with, his attention to detail and organisational skills are second to none. Andy would improve any team that he was a part of."

Listed skills include Fiber Optics, Firewalls, Cabling, Windows Server, and 42 others.
