Optomi's Baltimore Team Volunteers at Paul's Place
November 5, 2017
We teamed up with Paul’s Place in Baltimore yesterday, an organization we have a long-standing relationship with that provides programs, services, and support to the area’s underprivileged residents. What we love most about Paul’s Place is their motto: treat everyone with dignity and respect – and we all have fun doing it!
Rob Wallace was put in charge of their computer lab where he helped people create email accounts, spruce up their resumes, and apply for jobs. The rest of the group took turns organizing the clothing donations for Paul’s Place “store” – where local residents get a personal shopping experience along with providing appropriate outfits for job interviews – and serving lunch. It’s always amazing to see how grateful and respectful the guests are to all volunteers and appreciate being given a hot meal with healthy options.
Overall, it was another humbling experience for everyone! Between the opening Paul’s Place meeting where we took turns reading inspirational quotes aloud to interacting with guests who were eager to learn all about Optomi, there was no shortage of smiling from the group!

Employee reluctance to adopt ServiceNow, driven by a lack of understanding and confidence in navigating its features, resulted in a significant decline in the client’s productivity and operational efficiency. Facing an urgent need to effectively implement ServiceNow, the client partnered with Optomi Professional Services (OPS) to devise a strategy to seamlessly integrate the platform into employees’ daily workflows.

Optomi Professional Services (OPS) is pleased to announce the appointment of Carey Luhn as the organization's Vice President of Strategic Accounts. In this role, Luhn will be responsible for creating development strategies aligned to enterprise partners with a focus on growing adoption of the unified suite of OPS service offerings.

A leading healthcare insurance company experienced several challenges with their Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) module due to the extensive customizations made during the initial implementation. While originally intended to meet specific needs, these customizations deviated significantly from standard configurations, leading to system inefficiencies, maintenance difficulties, and issues with platform upgrades. The client engaged Optomi Professional Services (OPS) to address these issues head-on.

A Fortune 150 financial services institution faced significant setbacks due to a stalled Vulnerability Response implementation utilizing the ServiceNow platform. The lack of industry expertise from the selected implementation partner resulted in the inability to move any code to production after months of attempts. ServiceNow was a newly implemented platform for the organization, leading to internal confusion, skepticism, limited adoption, and an inability to automate, orchestrate, or build new functions.

A mobility, Big Data, and Cloud Intelligence company struggled with finding local, on-site resources to deliver cutting-edge connected products. The client required skilled software engineers and product delivery resources with experience in mature agile/Scrum methodology within a production environment to transform the automotive industry.

A leading global provider of digital commerce solutions for retailers and restaurants struggled to keep pace with new feature demands in the face of strong and innovative new entrants into the highly competitive POS market. The client originally outsourced several development squads to a large, renowned global IT consulting firm that was extremely expensive and grappled to deliver efficiently. With a need to improve new feature delivery velocity and volume for one of their flagship products, the client engaged Optomi Professional Services (OPS) to address their budget and capacity constraints head-on.

Optomi Professional Services (OPS) is pleased to announce the addition of Blake Guyton as the company's Chief Revenue Officer (CRO). In this role, Guyton will provide strategic and tactical leadership across key revenue-focused initiatives as OPS continues to unify and elevate their service offerings.
