How We Help

Between leading the IEEE 2675 DevOps (now ISO/EIA/IEEE 32675) and the IEEE 828 Configuration Management working groups and authoring Configuration Management Best Practices, everyone knows that Bob’s the consultant that you need when you have a regulatory agency breathing down your neck. Now you can train with him, too. ​

What are you interested in today?

Bob is the man behind 2675-2021 (Standard for DevOps). As the Working Group Chair, Bob both envisioned and led the effort to establish principles and processes to build, package, and deploy systems and applications in a reliable and secure way. He is the editor of the Agile ALM DevOps Journal, and the author of Configuration Management Best Practices and Agile Application Lifecycle Management: Using DevOps to Drive Process, as well as numerous other books and articles. 

 

Bob doesn’t remember a time when he wasn’t incorporating DevOps principles into his life. Before Bob’s name was synonymous with success, he was just a blind kid. Since growing up with a white cane presented some unique challenges, Bob learned to constantly assess his environment, begin hypothesizing as to how he could overcome obstacles, pilot a solution and adjust as needed, and both examine failures for lessons learned and celebrate successes. Today, those are the very same steps he uses in his training and consulting practice. 

 

Bob’s mission is to help you accelerate your application delivery and save time and money, while staying more secure than ever before.

Senior I/T Specialist, IBM

“I met Bob when he was brought in to Bear Stearns to take charge of the integration process and, later, the firm’s source code management system – a critical pillar of our systems, and one in which process is vital, but which frankly had not previously received as much attention as it required. Bob revolutionized our approach, creating not only a process from scratch, but painstakingly and patiently educating the firm’s IT community in both it and in the product we used at the time (Clearcase).”

Senior Engineer, American Express

“I’ve known Bob for a number of years now and in that time I have always found him to be a man of great principles and honor. It was with great pleasure that I found he had accepted the position of EiC at CM Crossroads. Bob will be exceptional in this role as he is very knowledgeable of the subject matter (CM), is well rounded all aspects of ALM and security and is very reasonable and easy to work with.”
