I have known James for many years in various capacities. Starting out in a vendor / client relationship; evolving to an employee/employer relationship and consequently a friendship. I know James to be a very hard worker, and a good leader, who keeps his eye on the corporate goals and objectives. James is also an honest, straight shooter, and a very fair man, who will go the distance for his team and his company.

I worked with James during the WMS implementation. James, in the role of Global Implementation Manager, was really result oriented assuring us the support we needed. His continuous and effective monitoring guaranteed the success of the project.
