Jason Brown

Bradley is one of the most enthusiastic people I've worked with, he loves a challenge. He's got a lot of experience in both manufacturing and project work. I met him when the MDG (Master Data) governance project was in the startup phase, as I was working for the MSS SBU Supply Chain team, but having done the SAP data migration for two sites, I knew the data well. He's an asset to any team and without him the MDG project would have never got off the ground. Companies forget how important data quality is, especially when they are making strategic decisions, based upon the poor data.

Bradley’s project management skills are second to none passing his enthusiasm and passion for projects onto the team. He adapts his style to suit the project/project team enabling delivery to a high standard. I enjoyed my time working with Bradley at a rapid and rewarding pace.
