Whenever IT projects temporarily need any specific knowledge, skill or experience I have I am happy to support them. Updating Existing IT Environments I support my customers to update and adapt their operational IT environments to keep up with technical evolution and changing business requirements. Introducing New Technologies With the never-ending stream of new technologies, I support my customers to learn about them, evaluate their relevance, choose among them and introduce them into their environments with minimal efforts and service disruptions. | Project Management Combining technological knowledge and professional project management I lead my customer's IT projects to success. Using my experience in IT operations I take particular care to ensure that the project's results can actually used in a production environment. Risk Management I support customers who want to manage their business risks properly with the discovery, assessment and control of their risks. | Resources How to Make Sure that Nobody will Ever Use My Excellent Software (Twice).
