Leading and managing Software Companies with focus in the area of ERP, manufacturing and advanced technology solutions. I live and breathe manufacturing and Technology Innovations to support it. I have been involved "feet on the ground" from product inception and development to deployment and maintenance providing me with exposure across North America, Europe, South Africa and Australia and many aspects of the businesses. Continuously evolving, learning and growing on our foundations. Data methodologies are driving forward with intelligent sensors including Machine Vision and Machine Learning. I have learned first hand the laurels of entrepreneurship, software development and architecture planning, software lifecycles & release cycles, business management, and strategies to get product to market. And I was fortunate enough to have seen many striving organizations to learn that there are many ways to achieve the goals and always be open to new methods and ideas.Specialties: IT and Automation Strategy and LeadershipAdvanced manufacturing and Industry 4.0Software and advanced systems process implementationData driven manufacturingCompany turn-around and restructureStart-ups and company growthTechnical:ERP Software for manufacturingMachine Vision for manufacturing Advanced Scheduling Supply chain and ForecastingI.T.
