This involves making decisions on purchasing, dealing with vendors, project management and implementation, all business technology policy, staff recruitment, performance appraisals, all security issues, and OH&S.
„Í The company's infrastructure spans across the globe. When Chris joined Laserex in 2002 the IT infrastructure was in its initial startup stage, was very unreliable and causing significant disruptions and affecting productivity right across the business. Chris has taken Laserex to a global access system with dedicated servers and services to provide the business with MRP, multiple function databases, clustered servers, wifi, full remote access globally, and collaboration globally. Policy and procedures have been created along with a BCP, SLA, KPI and automated system reporting.
„Í On a day to basis Chris is responsible for all of Laserex's security ¡V from IT right through to building security, and this is done on an integrated basis. The security issues for Laserex are very important due to the high component of research and development conducted, and the need for total secrecy.
„Í When Chris joined Laserex he built a team of staff reporting to him; comprising help desk, MRP system support, and two technical staff based in the US. Chris is responsible for all aspects of hiring, performance appraisals, and staff development. There are also four staff located in other overseas locations who don't report directly to Chris, however he matrix manages them as a virtual team on a project by project basis.

The IT set up has become more complex especially from a security perspective, as Laserex works with OEM partners in the US, Japan and Europe and these partners need to access the Laserex system without any breach in security. 95% SLA's have been maintained for over two years running; this includes the wifi access, all remote access and voice systems. Chris introduced and project managed the VoIP & Global Video Conferencing facilities, which have maintained 100% uptime and exceeded SLA's.

Due to the confidential nature of some of the work done at this location, it is not possible to talk about the technology in detail. However Chris was involved in implementing cutting edge, remote access technology for BAE.
„Í Project "East Timor" was a challenge for Chris as he was sent in to repair a project originally commissioned by BAE to private contractors. The full network and infrastructure, including all financial software, was running well below standard and technology support in East Timor was lacking. At short notice Chris had to evaluate, recommend, and enhance the networking systems supporting the project.
„Í In addition to his project tasks (as BAE were a technical and mechanical service provider for Project "East Timor") Chris took on several other minor projects to evaluate, recommend and, in some cases, repair or provide project requirements for contractors to local business owners on the island. This enabled them to get business back up and running, and the work done by Chris was above and beyond the requirements of role. However Chris was able to have a major positive effect on the way BAE was viewed by the local business community and in turn provided a greater business standing, level of credibility and helped make BAE a favored business for the island to deal with.
„Í Other duties included the role of Chairman for the BAE OH&S committee.
Achievements
* Project "East Timor" was successfully fixed by Chris.
