Project management of multiple projects in a Business intelligence environment. The BICC here builds solutions on mostly SAS and Business objects within a SAP / Oracle environment.I currently have about 20+ projects on my list with timelines from as little as a month to as long as 2 years.Very challenging and rewarding environment with mostly contractors performing the work. I manage both Architects, System Analysts, Developers and Business Analysts.

Building solutions for the SMB and enterprise enviroment. Product sets include HP servers and storage, VMware, IBM, EMC, SUN and Symantec. From conception to inception and maintenance. I strive to build the the correct solution for the correct price.

Brought in to assist with pre-sales, my knowledge and dedication earned a promotion to GM of the enterprise division within the first year. My clients included "The Bond Exchange" now part of the JSE and "SA Taxi Finance" to name just two. This was a very challenging position and I was well rewarded for my efforts. Unfortunately, the economic down turn took its toll on the growing company and finally liquidated in 2010.
