As VP of Research and Development, it is my role to ensure LBMX is forward looking with respect to product initiatives, understanding and integrating new technology platforms such as AI and DLT (blockchain) into current, planned and future products, all-the-while ensuring LBMX's future product direction and technologies are consistent with LBMX's mission to make independents successful.

LBMX is a leading provider of technology solutions for buying groups, purchasing co-operatives, independent members and their suppliers. These solutions combine to form a total solution for rebate and purchase analysis, member electronic document delivery, business intelligence, and EDI services to assist members and groups to connect to suppliers. LBMX’s close association with the buying group/cooperative supply chain model has allowed LBMX to develop a unique understanding of groups, their members and suppliers. This has resulted in the implementation of LBMX technology solutions that are a fit with both the strategic direction and operational priorities of their customers. Based on LBMX’s “many to many” technology, LBMX solutions are helping to connect suppliers, groups and independent member owners resulting in over 250,000 trading relationships. This has resulted in significant operational efficiencies for all members of the supply chain as well as providing groups with access to line item member purchase detail upon which better buying and rebate decisions can be made. LBMX has customers in Canada, United States, Australia, New Zealand and the UK.
