Robert is the author of P4OFC - the Perforce plug-in for Microsoft Office. This is a widely used plug-in which makes the use of Perforce from within Office applications a breeze (including showing the differences between document versions in Word). He is thus experienced with all aspects of the Perforce API (see his presentation at the Perforce User Conference), and is available for integration projects and other development work.

"Robert reviewed our processes and provided us with excellent insight on strategic SCM practices with Perforce, such as how to get the best out of branching and merging."

Andres Torrubia, Chief Technology Officer, Trymedia Systems, Spain

Over 15 years experience in systems development. Configuration management experience includes Perforce on a wide variety of platforms and various other tools (CVS, CMS, SCCS/RCS, PVCS). Experienced at implementing software configuration management (SCM) in "chaotic" development environments and tightening up on development standards and procedures including build and release management and testing.

Training

Robert regularly conducts training courses on behalf of Perforce and for Perforce clients. These range from a few hours to 3-day courses (with and without lab exercises). He gives the public courses on behalf of Perforce in the UK. The courses are normally tailored to suit individual company's requirements and very frequently combined with implementation consultancy and joint workshops.

Courses are available in English, German, Italian and French.
