EXPERIENCE PROFILE
________________________________________
MIDWEST MOBILE SURVEILLANCE LLC 5/2008 – 1/2011
Business Development Manager
The start-up company specialized in mobile video surveillance trailers. During the first 12 months I successfully marketed 10 mobile units generating over $450,000.00. To increase profit, sales, and reliability we designed, rebuilt, and produced our own units. The outcome of 10 months of R&D we increased performance by 30 to 50%, lowered our cost to the end user by 25%, and increased company profits by 20% while decreasing bugs in the overall engineering design.
TELECOMMUNICATIONS TECHNOLOGY GROUP 4/2004 – 4/2008
Project Management - Performance Analyst
Managed over 10 companies simultaneously (average company spent between $200,000 and $800,000 annual) in their communications efforts. As an independent manager working with lower and upper level personnel, process and verification was key to achieving cost reductions while increasing overall performance of all communications systems including local service, long distance, wireless, intra-company data, internet, and all associated hardware. Providing a true and accurate blueprint for all to review while creating a well rounded strategy to achieve maximum results.
The overall process included;
• Benchmarking all services costs, contract status, and performance within the organization
• Uncovering errors or inconsistencies within the products and services – returning lost funds to the bottom line
• Gathering all records from the vendor community to cross reference with actual billing
• Meeting with key staff to conduct needs analysis and fully understand the operational goals
• Developing a vast bidders’ network across the country to obtain the absolute best pricing model for the organization
• Producing full reports often in excess of 100 pages detailing the above and providing various options to enhance capabilities and lower overall costs (average cost reduction 44%)
• Personally managing all aspects of changes, training, and cost saving reporting to the organizations
• Maintaining all records ongoing to ensure new requests meet with the overall goals and objectives – keeping the team focused
