Bruce - Why he decided to start his own consulting business
“I have some approaches that are different from some of the other software companies, and it's worked really well for me, customers liked the experience that I'm bringing to the table, and at the end of the day, I can choose when I'm going to be working and where I'm working, and it's just worked really well for my lifestyle now.”
Bruce - Why an ERP is important
“You want to make sure that the right information is going to the supplier and their community back to you on what their commitments are for delivering it, and I think that it all falls into place even as far as having the right pricing and in there.”
Bruce - Why it’s important to follow a part setup strategy
“If they skip the planning parameters and don't do anything, they're creating more work for themselves, because now they're not consolidating, they're not leveraging the system.”
