Office Data & Design

 

I revamp computer and process structures to make them more profitable in the Supply Chain and USPS arena.  I do this by evaluating/cleaning/correcting processes, writing computer software, designing databases and creating tighter integration between people, process and systems.

I am or can become an expert in your processes in a matter of days and turn your IT department from a cost center to a Service Oriented department. I believe in a sound understanding of your business processes is the key to transforming your IT or supply chain. I am deeply familiar with USPS and small package supply chains.
