Bill Buchan’s Experience

  • Owner

    HADSL

    (Public Company; 1-10 employees; Computer Software industry)

    June 2001Present (7 years 2 months)

    I am one of three senior consultants working within HADSL.

    For the last three years we have concentrated on building the best Domino Automated user and group management solution in the market. This product - FirM - can be found at http://www.hadsl.com.

    I've 20 years IT experience - the last 10 in senior consulting roles all over Europe. Most of these consulting jobs were working on behalf of IBM for enterprise-level customers such as Philips.

    I've focused on the enterprise groupware and communication sector for the last 10 years - in particular, Lotus Domino.

    I'm one of only 30+ individuals worldwide with PCLP certifications in both Administration and Development, in Notes versions v3-v7 as well as Java, IBM Websphere, and IBM Portal.

    I'm an industry recognised expert in Lotus Domino - and spoke at Lotusphere 2005, promoting best practices in Object Orientated design. My evaluations concluded that I was the 8th best speaker (out of 200+)
