Consulted at all levels of these organizations on a wide range of implementation issues from installing hand-held counting devices, managing patch processes etcetera, to participation strategy sessions for enterprise hardware requirements and backup methods. Of particular note at one client I was responsible for troubleshooting and correcting a hardware problem with the EDI transmission during Go-Live, preventing a potential disaster in the supply chain. These engagements resulted in my being selected as one of only two technical consultants in the company to attend the annual “Achievers Club” trip for the 1997-98 sales year. I was recognized as the field leader in security and in that role wrote and delivered a 2 day on-site client workshop significantly enhancing client’s security setup at go-live. Other engagements of note included training engagements at Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic and software installation. In 2000, I was selected as “Consultant of the Year” among all services consultants at Lawson. Provided technical consulting services on all Lawson modules including but not limited to: AC, AP, AR, BL, BN, GL, HR, IA, IC, IF, LA, MA, PO, PR, WF, and WH. Show less
