Feb. 2000 - Jun. 2001Johannesburg Area, South AfricaAppointed primarily to lead the bid from a technical perspective to sell a replacement for the Telecommunications Network Inventory and Planning System developed at Advanced Knowledge Systems (Pty) Ltd (see below) to Telkom SA. The bid came from a multi-national consortium of 13 partners (including IPP members) and was short-listed. We lost the deal when we refused to counter a bribe put up by a competitor. Not being a sales person, I resigned when it was clear the bid was lost.
Advanced Knowledge Systems (Pty) LtdGeneral Manager
Jan. 1990 - Nov. 1998Johannesburg Area, South AfricaTurned around a bankrupt software development company, created a new software development team which peaked at 65 people, implemented Object Oriented Software Engineering disciplines, took on the development of a Telecommunications Network Inventory and Planning System for Telkom SA, delivered a 102 man year iteration of the project 4 hours late and with 3 bugs (fixed, regression tested and delivered within two weeks) and almost succeeded in selling the company in North America at the height of the Dot Com bubble. Regrettably, Telkom fell under the control of American management who preferred to use their own suppliers. In addition, local BEE and Affirmative Action criteria made it difficult for a small company to re-qualify as an independent supplier to Telkom SA. We lost our only client and could not cover the distance to secure one or more replacements.
