Selected work
A short set of engagements. The point is what changed — coverage, cost, plant, or a company that could actually deliver — not a list of titles.
CNH Industrial
OEM · agriculture
Led a tiger team from first discussion to first U.S. customer installs of a first-in-market satellite-on-vehicle AG solution. Nine months. $1.6M actual against a $2.0M target.
A connectivity program that made it to the field on a fixed budget and a short clock — not a prototype that stayed on the bench.
Global connectivity portfolio
OEM · carriers
Negotiated with three global carriers on a live OEM connectivity portfolio: 30% cost reduction, 8× acreage coverage, and 3× baseline airtime and data capacity.
The commercial layer of the network caught up with what the machines actually needed in the field.
CNH Industrial
Program leadership
Owned the annual connectivity budget covering operations, R&D, automated test fixtures, training, and carrier partnerships. Directed a hybrid Agile/Waterfall team of program managers across development, plant integration, and adoption, with a 98% risk-mitigation clear rate.
Plant, product, and carrier work on one ledger — instead of three teams hoping they lined up.
Rajant Corporation
Industrial mesh
Opened oil-and-gas paths with accounts and partners including Exxon, Schlumberger, Bechtel, Border States Electric, and 3D-P. Built Rajant’s first Customer Services & Support division — professional services, coverage, and root-cause work — and published on kinetic mesh for remote and offshore operations.
The product could be specified into a finished customer solution, and there was a group that would stand behind it after the sale.
Zeecon Wireless / Saanco
Municipal · utility
Took Zeecon from a $256K annual cash loss to $225K profit in 24 months, retired $185K of long-term debt in nine, and kept the company debt-free through sale. Founded Saanco as a fiber integrator for cities and businesses outside the incumbent footprint, structuring public-private funding with cities, EDCs, schools, and hospital districts.
Public-sector demand from cities, schools, hospitals, police, fire/rescue, EOCs, and banks — with retention above 90% after the first reorganization.
MP Antenna
Operations · product
Reorganized production and sales. First-year result: 50% revenue growth and 220% profit growth on an operating-budget increase under 11%. Moved the company from hardware-only into field review and wireless design so products could be specified into finished customer networks.
Fewer internal SKUs, modular customer-facing ones, and sub-component manufacturing shifted from 20% in-house to 90% through process work and acquisitions.
