Lean software veteran to lead Ultriva Marketing and Business Development

Ultriva Inc., the world leader in lean software solutions, announced the appointment of Bill Swisher to the role of Director of Business Development. Swisher said, "Over the past 19 years I have enjoyed working with many global 1000 companies as they have implemented lean manufacturing, yet struggled with the challenge of formalizing the lean methodology. I now have the opportunity to expand Ultriva's best in class, lean supply chain solution to serve the needs of those companies that look to support their demand driven enterprise, eKanban, OEE and supply chain optimization requirements."

Ultriva's user base includes world class lean manufacturers such as Emerson, Ingersoll Rand, Trane, CNH, A.O. Smith, McKesson, Rexnord, Dover, Dresser and Koyo. According to Ultriva CEO Narayan Laksham, "As we continue to grow at a record pace, we recognize that we need to continue to expand our talent with industry experts that understand the challenges of today's complex manufacturing. Swisher's experience as an executive and practitioner at some of the most renowned lean consulting and software firms will be an asset as we continue to develop our team and serve our clients."

As Director of Business Development, Swisher will lead inbound and outbound marketing, managing partners and assist the sales team in cultivating enterprise accounts. Swisher will play a key role in accelerating Ultriva's growth and entrenching its position as the market leader.

Swisher previously held the Vice President Sales and Marketing at JCIT International (now DemandPoint Inc.) and management positions at TBM Consulting Group, Breakthrough Management Group. During his tenure at those firms, Swisher led lean engagements with many leading manufacturing corporations including GE, American Standard, Flextronics, Ingersoll Rand, Emerson, AstraZeneca and Nacco.
