We hired Andy Collier to research the pros and cons of a particular software program for our boutique textile business and our complicated multi -step production and inventory needs. He then mapped out a strategy as to how he would customize the program to meet those needs and put together a model for review. Throughout the process, Andrew was professional, timely, and delivered what he committed to (and more) and stayed on budget. I had lots of concerns, but he allayed my fears every step of the way, answering my multitude of questions methodically and honestly. We benefitted greatly from Andy’s contribution to our business, and I recommend his work ethic and skills highly. He's the real deal, bringing -as he does- experience working effectively on far more complicated business structures than my own.
