After 10 years as Director of Information Systems and Vice President for a major Houston architectural firm, Jeff Vandervoort has launched JRVsystems to enhance customer service and profitability of your small business through strategic, insightful use of automation.
This is the first of a series of non-technical newsletters covering topics of interest to small-business owners.
Business owners often complain about IT consultants who are not aligned with management objectives. This happens because many consultants have deep, narrow technical backgrounds. Specialists who often cannot see the forest for the trees.
JRVsystems is different. Jeff Vandervoort began his career outside IT, on a management track. He was a line-of-business project manager, partner, and a vice president. He was involved at the highest management level of these companies; customer service and profitability were his prime concerns. Technology had no value unless it advanced these agenda.
Further, he was educated as an architect and practiced for years. His design skills enable him to understand and fully solve end-user needs, to look beyond standard solutions. Few IT specialists have aptitude in these "soft skills."
Finally, his background and JRVsystems’ focus is small business. Most IT consultants prefer larger clients. JRVsystems is attuned to the fast pace and limited resources of your small business. Like you, he wears many hats, and is a hands-on generalist. So you deal with one person for all your automation needs.
National recognition corroborates Jeff Vandervoort’s responsiveness to business needs: His Brochure Wizard was one of 3 finalists in Microsoft’s 1996 Windows World Open, a national custom application competition. He worked alone, yet his competition included companies like GE and Chase Manhattan Bank, and government entities like USPS, Army Corps of Engineers and LAPD.
And now, JRVsystems is ready to design superior automation solutions for your company.
