Lori Richlark
Senior System Analyst @ Manitoba Liquor & Lotteries Corporation
About
I have 25+ years of multi-disciplinary IT experience in the Energy, Transportation, Health Care, Banking, International Aid and Public Service sectors. I started my career as a software developer so I understand how software is specified, designed, built, tested and implemented. As a practicing DBA for many years I understand the principles of master data design and management. Since 2006 I have worked primarily in the role of transition, service delivery or project manager and have contributed to the authoring of Sierra’s SMART Methodology, a purpose built proprietary methodology for application support and maintenance. As a Service Delivery Manager, I've collaborated with client stakeholders at all levels of the organization to design and activate effective service processes that meet the needs of the business processes that they support, are cost effective, measurable and transparent, As a Project Manager I've guided my teams to the successful delivery of technical upgrade and software development projects in many industry verticals. I draw on the vast depth and breadth of my career experience to add value to every role. For me the thrill has always been in figuring out how something works, then making it work better. I love it when an engagement comes to a natural conclusion because the client no longer needs me because I've shared the knowledge and coached them to develop the skills they needed to carry on the work themselves, because it means I have done my job well and honorably. ITIL certified (V2 with V3 bridging).
