Bio
Ron Shaw
Marc is a rare individual. He combines the ability to capture new ideas, analyze them using a structured methodology and synthesize these ideas into insights that his sales colleagues can use. He communicates ideas clearly and concisely because he understands them at a very fundamental level. His communications are powerful because he has the ability to introduce new ideas while still preserving the self esteem of the people who may be "invested" in the old ideas. The methodology that Marc uses is so powerful that it would make a best selling business book!

Marc has a unique ability to convey exactly what customers want in a software solution. I have enjoyed the benefit of working with Marc for a few years now and have been thoroughly impressed with his ability to relate with customers in various business/industry sectors. Marc and I attended a conference for Pharmaceuticals companies using Six Sigma and I was able to see firsthand how Marc set up scenarios that helped potential customers see the benefit of IT enabled-solutions to meet their business needs. I highly recommend Marc based on being a great marketing resource who has a unique blend of industry experience to "Get the Big Picture"!

Asset management coordinates the financial, operational, maintenance, risk, and other asset-related activities of an organization to realize more value from its assets. This international standard suite focuses on managing physical and intangible assets. I have been directly involved in the development of these standards, since 2010, in the capacity of committee member, committee chair, and working group convenor.

Aug 2017 - Sep 2019
I was principal expert and teacher representing the Asset Performance Management (APM) suite of software and services. I enjoyed interacting with engineers and data scientists as I traveled across six continents. I successfully explained how APM is purpose built to safely maximize predictive production, at the lowest sustainable cost, while observing the risk profile of the business. Our time was spent mapping these capabilities to our customers' work processes, enabling them to achieve a more optimal division of labor between brains and bits! Show less

Jul 2016 - Aug 2017
It didn't take very long to know that this role was exactly the next natural step in my career. At the time I was helping to write international standards in Asset Management systems. There was growing alignment between the technical management of assets and the financial management of assets. PowerPlan's portfolio of applications were purpose built to support this. With my background in APM I had some good technical credibility at the user level. Combined with my expertise at the strategic level of asset management, I sat across the table from CEOs and CFOs in private industry and public sector. Show less
