As the “Genius at Large” I have free reign to investigate any of the business processes that I feel might have room for improvement. I have been documenting the business processes as I go. That is something that the company really needed. Some of the process improvements are as simple as designing a more streamlined and efficient way to perform tasks. Other improvements require Information Technology software to be developed and hardware to be installed. For these more complex solutions, I work with the development teams as the voice of the user. My 35 years of experience in business and Information Technology are the basis for my insight and understanding the needs of the business, the capabilities of technology and the skill to bring the two together. One of my current projects is the automation of an extremely manual process. I have narrowed the field to three possible solutions, any one of which could do the job. My investigation will select the best fit for the company. When the system is implemented in 2016 it will save the company over $750,000 per year and will have an 8 month breakeven point. The solution will also reduce cycle time and will increase data accuracy.
