He has constantly given support ti MOL PjM team (project managers for resolution of customer’s issues) providing guidance, data and analysis and indicating some of the necessary changes in the process for keeping the program under control.
· He then developed the idea of a Tool that will unify even more all processes, creating an environment where information will flow freely between teams located in different part of the globe and being readily available. This tool will concentrate in one place procedures and will generate easily and quickly all reports needed to track and control work, eliminating large part of human work and email chasing for information. The estimation is that it could save millions of dollars in a more efficient use of resources’ time with a minimal investment (about 200.000$). A part of the tool has been developed and deployed successfully. Actually an extension of Customer support interface and Test Group interface is under development.
· Motorola Ltd : June 2006 – July 2007. Appointed to be MOL Program Manager Leader (MOL = Maintenance on Line). This role was similar to the one he had in 2004, but with much a larger scope: he coordinated work of more 90 engineers (not being directly reporting to him) mostly located in China Beijing Centre. He flew few times China to coordinate and organize work. He had full responsibility of the whole GSM BSS MOL program dealing with Customer’s issues worldwide. In this role he had to interface with all the groups working on customer resolution such as Customer Support, Quality, End to End team and Development. H e was also been appointed to be MOL PLT representative (PLT = Program Leadership Team) for the whole GSM (OSS & BSS) development. He had a close interface with Senior Leadership for any reporting and strategic decision. In this role he put in place and initiated strategic reorganization of the team in order to achieve faster resolution, with highest quality. Lots of attention was dedicated to “Track & Control”, monitoring constantly issue statuses and progresses. He developed some basic tools to keep track of the work needed and the work in progress, allowing him to prioritize appropriately and to distribute resources in a balanced way. Benefits were immediate and the huge backlog of issues Development was not able to cope with (more than 600) quickly reduced to a manageable level (actually less than 30). He also promoted and introduced important changes in End to End process so to simplify and to speed up resolution cycle time. The work done in “tracking & controlling” allowed him to make accurate forecast on resource and budget planning for 2007 in an unprecedented way, putting together a model of backlog resolution plan that was successfully achieved.
· Motorola LTD: March 2006 – December 2006. Appointed as representative for GSM Division in Cellular Networks Vital X program (project for improving and spreading quality initiatives and best practises across the whole Motorola) named “Inputs for Software FMEA”. Scope of this project is to identify methodologies and processes to reduce defects of 20% using FMEA (Fault Mode and Effect Analysis: identify “a priori”, in brainstorming sessions, which could be final product’s failures, ranking them in importance order and then setting up corrective actions to eliminate or minimize effects).
· Motorola LTD: April 2005 – June 2006. Development support group resource manager. In this role he managed a group almost 20 engineers throughout all the aspects of Motorola management (Personal Management, goal assignments, dialogues, feedbacks, checkpoints). He was active part, with the other managers of the group, for distributing and managing the work in the department. He has been assigned to the role of Feature Champion for the introduction of a new board in BSS equipment that will provide Ethernet connection between BSS and GPRS system. In this role he collaborated closely with Chinese engineer and local FW developers.
· Motorola LTD: December 2004 – April 2005. Involved in many initiatives and discussions about how to improve Software Quality, acting as a key promoter for a new process integrating on one side improving developers’ technical coding skills and, on the other side, using objective and precise measures about code produced.
· Motorola LTD: January 2004 – March 2005. Responsible for EMEA SW MOL group (Europe, Middle East and Africa Software Maintenance On Line group) as section manager. In this role he managed a group of people on two different sites (Swindon – UK and Cork – IRL) reporting to a manager located in US. Main duties were organizing the group, prioritizing and assigning workload and being sure fixes were delivered on time and with high quality. Essential part in this role was dealing with all the aspect of management Motorola requires such as assignment of personal goals for the year, performing regular dialogues with team members (checkpoints, evaluation of performances and behaviours at the end of the year). The group worked closely with Customer Support and Local Offices in different countries in EMEA zone and it was of vital importance building and maintaining strong relationships of mutual trust. The work had to be coordinated with similar MOL groups in US and China and workload had to be balanced and shared carefully. The few spare moments were dedicated to problem investigations, fixing and testing them. This exciting role has been terminated as Motorola, for strategic decision, decided to move all MOL to a low cost centre in China.
