I was RM at Connect44 (Service Supplier) while he was head of Procurement at Huawei Chile. David is a very professional and dedicated person at work. During the time he was doing business with us the projects he was assigned were a great successes. It was such a very pleasant and interesting time working with him. I believe he possesses excellent negotiation skills and qualifications that an exceptional manager should have as well as of a leader. I highly recommend Mr Merlez and, without doubt, believe that he will be such a great contribution in any Company he performs.
