Rural City of Wangaratta

"I tasked Border Business Solutions with identifying and documenting the processes supporting the Rural City of Wangaratta as part of a complex electronic document handling project. This required independently working with major stakeholders across multiple departments at all levels of management to capture the specific details of over 30 different processes. 

The output received not only met my requirements but went far beyond by identifying opportunities for improved efficiencies and internal controls with practical recommendations. What really surprised me was that this was all completed in a much shorter timeframe than I anticipated for the core work effort. The extra value add was recognised across the Council and other departments have subsequently used Border Business Solutions to review and enhance their management systems (processes, reporting & management review). 

The work was completed by Richard Fenton-Smith whom I found to be very professional, flexible, practical and innovative.

I would strongly recommend Border Business Solutions to any business seeking to be more efficient, productive and better controlled.

Suzanne Fisher, Manager IT, Rural City of Wangaratta"

 

Testimonials

Derrick V. Warren (IBM Vice President & Senior Consulting Partner and Account/Delivery Executive - IT Sales, Strategy and Analytics) managed Richard at IBM

“Richard and I worked together for several years in Asia Pacific. To say that he is one of the most disciplined, imaginative, structured, creative, persistent, thorough, accurate, financially astute and results focused leaders is an under statement. Richard knows how to get things done! We were able to restore business growth to our geography in double digits, transform multiple 'ill" accounts to health (financially, operationally and with improved client satisfaction) as well as quadrupled the number of Project Executive Certifications. Richard also mentored several of our geography colleagues...many who are currently prospering in their careers. I can't recall a single request that he wasn't able to fulfill. This is a key reason why I recommend him for any key leadership role that requires someone in need of very strong financial, operational, educational, consulting and/or IT expertise. He is truly one of the best!”
