Bio
Trevor French.
Bala worked as lead solution architect on a global, company-wide, SalesForce implementation. As business sponsor for the same project I worked with Bala on ensuring a robust implementation plan and user training experience. Whilst undoubtedly the ‘go to person’ from a system technical perspective he also took time to understand our business processes, products within the business, and customer interface points, so as to allow him to offer solutions that seamlessly fit, or was able to anticipate future needs ahead of the actual need for such. Throughout he was prompt in providing answers, ensured follow up, and maintained watch on performance across the project landscape. I would recommend Bala for any such future projects.

I had the pleasure of working with Bala on CRM implementation programme where he was a solution architect. His experience, professionalism and dedication made him a key contributor to our projects. He has a deep understanding of the digital space and showed great commitment to the projects from start to finish. No matter the challenges, being a natural leader he is always positive, supportive and always patiently provides explanations and guidance. He is a strong team player and skillfully deploys refreshing innovations, complex problem solving focused on what is needed providing the highest level of expertise, solution architecture and support. An outstanding consultant, always going the extra mile for clients and delivering maximum business benefit with well-designed solutions. I would recommend him unreservedly.
