Ion Exchange India Ltd. Vashi, Navi Mumbai Sept-2006 to Present

Role : IT MANAGER

Major Initiatives: ENTERPRISE RESOURCE PLANNING (ERP): Provided leadership during

the initial software selection and implementation phases of the Company's mission

critical software application. Utilizing the very stable IBM iSeries platform,

nearly all modules of the ERP application were implemented at all of the Company's

locations. These modules included: Customer Order Processing, Indent, Purchasing,

Inventory, Manufacturing, Warehouse Activity Control, Financials, EDI and document

output management (printing, email, faxing, etc.) We have also deployed a high

availability (HA) solution that continually synchronizes this vital application with

redundant systems at another one of our facilities for contingency planning and

disaster recovery protection. The result of this effort has been operating cost

reduction of 30%, consolidation of several roles across the organization, reduction

in head-count, increased visibility to all processes, and improved information flow

throughout the supply chain and organization.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY INFRASTRUCTURE/DATA CENTER RELOCATION: Lead a multifunctional

project team comprised of personnel from IT operations, applications, data

networking, facilities management, real estate specialists and human resources to

design, build and relocate our corporate headquarters and data center. Critical

considerations included a complete electrical power design, fire retardant systems,

and mechanical systems (HVAC) for the new computer room. The project also required

working very closely with various telecommunication companies to provide the needed

services and to insure minimum downtime.

The move of our corporate headquarters and data center provided a unique opportunity

to insure that we had the right IT infrastructure in place that could be flexible

and support the business for years to come. Major components to this new

infrastructure included moving to a multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) wide area

network (WAN) and the implementation of a voice-over-IP (VOIP) phone system. Other

infrastructure technologies include: Cisco routers, Check Point Firewalls, and

Juniper Virtual Private Network (VPN) appliance. The net result of this new

architecture has been a lower total cost of ownership (TCO), minimized

administration and maintenance cost, and significantly improving our contingency

planning/disaster recovery capabilities. Our MPLS and VOIP project has a payback

period of 2.25 years with a 223% ROI. The addition of our Juniper VPN resulted in a

56% reduction in remote access charges while creating a more stable and reliable

remote access environment.

BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE (BI): Influenced other executives within the organization to

commit to and implement our Data Warehouse and web-based business-reporting tool.

This tool has simplified how the company's decision makers access, in logical

business terms, the mass amounts of transactional data within our enterprise system.

Built on the Cognos platform, the centerpiece of the tool is an executive dashboard.

This single dashboard reports on the company's key performance indicators (KPI's)

including, earnings before interest and tax (EBIT), EBIT as a percent of sales,

trailing 12 month (TTM) sales, net operating working capital percent of sales, gross

margin and gross profit, The total cost of gathering data has been reduced by 60%

resulting in the system paying for itself in 1.3 years. Return on investment (ROI) =

225%.

STRATEGY AND PLANNING: Utilize a cross-functional IT Steering Committee as well as

proactively engaging other members of senior management in the development and

execution of IT strategic plans to optimize the use of Information Technology. This

has resulted in the development of on-going 3 year strategic IT Plan that governs

and aligns the Information Technology initiatives with the corporate strategy and

optimizes IT resources.

PCE Electro Controls Pvt. Limited, Sangli Oct- 2004 to July-2006

Role : HOD - Information Technology

CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT (CRM): Partnered with outside consultants in the

design, development and rollout of the company's CRM system. This system has

centralized all customer contacts, correspondences, and other disparate customer

information. This application has improved the way the company's remote sales force

services their customers and is the focal point for all communications with the

customer. This platform also provides efficient communication and collaboration

between the organization and our international distributors, which has increased our

success rate for winning new business

E-COMMERCE: Lead internal staff, employees and a team of outside consultants in the

design, development and deployment of the Company's e-commerce website. Maximizing

existing in-house Lotus Domino technology, the site includes a full product catalog,

order placing and tracking capabilities, as well as library of technical information

regarding the company's individual product lines. The site has contributed to an

enhanced customer experience while reducing the number of customer service

Requests20%.

Most recently, in support of The Company's re-branding effort, my group has provided

the web presence necessary at to deliver our Company's new message to the

marketplace. This new site delivers on an updated look, navigation and self-service

capabilities to our customers and business partners in a clean, succinct manner. The

use of more standardized web technologies (Apache, PHP, mySQL, vs. Lotus Domino) has

resulted in a tremendous improvement to transaction response time and overall

performance on the site.
