ERP PANEL
We are trying something new at this
month’s Professional Development Meeting. We
will be hosting an ERP Panel of professionals from around the area who have been
instrumental in the implementation of ERP for their company. Each company selected a different system so there
will be a variety of experiences discussed. The
panelists will also present theory as well as practical application.
Some of the questions that will be
asked of the panelists are:
 | What was the business
issue that you were working to solve? |
| Why did your company
select ERP? |
| Why did your company
select the particular system & software package it did?
|
| Do you believe that your
company is operating more effectively now that you have ERP? If so, how? |
| What were some of the
immediate benefits or measurable differences that you found upon becoming an ERP user? |
There will also be time for questions and answers from
the audience.
Our panel includes:
Jeff Davey, VP Information Systems, Bently Nevada
Jim Hayes, VP Operations, Haws Corporation
John Kirsh, CEO, Sportif
Ron Tibben-Lembke, Professor of Logistics, UNR
Our Moderator is Bruce Marshall.
Bruce is the senior
managing associate of Prizm Solutions,
with more than 25 years of comprehensive P&L experience in entrepreneurial
and Fortune 100 manufacturing, service, sales and distribution operations.
In his capacity as a President and CEO, and as a Vice President
and Director of Manufacturing and Operations, Business Development,
Quality, and Productivity, Bruce has led organizations through turnaround,
critical startup and growth transitions; effectively spearheaded
acquisitions, divestitures and joint ventures; and has significant
private placement and IPO experience. Bruce holds both his undergraduate
and graduate degrees from the University of Illinois, and did his
