Peter-Jan Kortlever
It was a pleasure working with Ravi; he is precise, blazing fast, pragmatic and full with humor. I would entrust Ravi with any contract negotiation; from the easy ones to the most challenging. Every company should have a type like Ravi!

Ravi was my client at T-Mobile, where I was responsible for the IT delivery of Retail Billing and Enterprise Integration, working as Service Delivery Manager from Atos. Ravi is an excellent client to work with, skill-full, predictable, highly reliable: a promise is really a promise. He is always focused on the ultimate goal and does everything to help to accomplish the mutual success. I can recommend Ravi as a very intelligent manager and love to work with him again in the future.
