His core competencies include business process management, strategic planning and execution, strategic relationship management, product management, portfolio management, software and hardware development. Scot has extensively worked in the value stream management space, from his early exposure to Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing during his tenure within Gibarco-Veeder Root, a former Danaher company, to his time implementing these same principles while heading up the Professional Services teams at both Accept Software and Tasktop Technologies.
