As an independent consultant, Bill’s recommendations have improved employee morale, increased customer satisfaction and reduced cost, based on streamlined processes and automated call management solutions. Bill has performed operational and service management assessment projects across a variety of industries including large-scale retail, hospitality, telecommunications, and high-tech.  These projects have spanned a number of critical areas such as:

• evaluation and redesign of contact center processes and systems
• assessment and implementation of system and network infrastructure to support new application deployment
• analysis, vendor selection, and management of projects to outsource contact center functions

While serving as the IT Director at Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC), Bill successfully designed and implemented a centralized contact center model. This involved transitioning over seventy-five technical support professionals from thirty geographic locations into a unified support team. Bill created a multi-tiered job role and salary structure, along with designing and implementing an end-to-end process flow for all incidents received into the CSC Support Center.  The evaluation, purchase and deployment of Peregrine's call management application throughout the enterprise brought centralized reporting, service levels, and accountabilities to the organization.

At EDS, Bill assembled a team of technical support professionals tasked with providing mission-critical customer service to wireless communications carriers. Bill was a co-leader in a complete re-engineering of the IT organization, focusing on defining multi-level support responsibilities and the search, selection, and implementation of an enterprise call management application.

Bill’s career began at Atex, a division of Eastman Kodak, where he held positions as an Applications Engineer and Software Release Control Manager, prior to taking on the challenge of creating a centralized Customer Support Center.
