Bio
Simon Malivoire
During my time at Lotus Renault, we hired James as a Business Objects specialist to work on a complex re-structuring project. I found him to be affable and professional at all times. When the project hit a difficult phase, it was James’s creativity and ability to think outside the box that allowed us to continue with a revised schedule, rather than aborting the project. I would have no hesitation in working with James in the future. A reliable and approachable professional.

Sep 2006 - Mar 2009
Originally employed to work with the Business Objects Planning (formerly SRC) product and then cross trained onto the SAP BPC (formerly Outlooksoft) product after the SAP acquisition in 2008. Since the acquisition SAP didn't actually win any contracts for services on the BPC product for numerous reasons. My team was eventually made redundant in March 2009. However I was fully trained on the SAP BPC product in readiness for the first implementation. I also received training on the SAP Strategy Management and BI/BW Data Warehousing products.
