Mark Pratt’s Summary

I am part of the specifications group at Vanguardistas. Defining success is the key to any successful project. We have the specifications and project management process down to a science.

Visit www.vanguardistas.net to see our process.

As a experienced entrepreneur I have extensive business experience on two continents and three countries.

My clients have been in just about every industry imaginable: Automotive, Banking, Consumer Electronics, and my favorite: Publishing. Hence, I can share insights on various business models and best practices.

Open Source is one of many tools we wield at Vanguardistas to give our customers a competitive edge. Open Source is not an answer by itself but a tremendous opportunity to remain free of vendor/supplier dominance.
