Leadership

Mike MacDonald

MANAGING PARTNER

As a founding member of ITA Data Solutions, Mike was instrumental in architecting the corporate structure and offerings to focus expertise on helping clients understand and define the value – and develop a plan to adopt – SAP S/4 HANA by focusing on the reduction of the IT footprint through the adoption of business optimization capabilities within the new ERP system. Mike was among the first partners around the world to implement SAP HANA in an operational environment (June 2012), producing customer and inventory segmentation insights into a 50-year-old company, and giving the management team a view of their business that had previously not existed. He is a true believer that the ability to bring transactional and analytical data into a single platform to produce real-time actionable information will change the standard order-to-cash, procure-to-pay and plan-to-produce processes that have long governed the manufacturing and distribution.
