Graig Calabrese Experienced PDM & PLM Solution Architect, Project Manager, Business & Process Analyst. Trusted adviser.
I worked closely for Graig during the last two years at Lockheed Martin on a flight simulator program. Graig was the program engineer and is a competent, enthusiastic, and hard working engineer with skills in the hardware and software system architecture, design, coding, testing and integration. I would highly recommend Graig as a prospective emplyee.
Working with Graig was a pleasure. We had a symbiotic relationship and meshed quite well. Our efforts covered the Program and Project management for release of a PLM product to a large client. From the onset Graig took on the financial, purchasing, and tracking of this high visibility project. Together we have delivered a PLM environment second to none in an FDA Certified environment. Without Graig this delivery would have gone over schedule, and over budget. His keen eye for details and business savvy kept us on track. The schedule and lessons learned will be used on all future deliveries. Excellent work, well spoken, flexible, on target are ways that I would describe Graig.
Graig provided excellent professional support in the PDM arena, specifically around the PTC Toolset, providing keen insight to how the toolset was designed to be used.. He designed most of the functionality that is still in place. Graig was adamant about understanding the customer requirement, designing and developing to that requirement, and ensuring support mechanisms were in place to follow.
Working with Graig was terrific. He is a multi-talented individual who can rapidly grasp complex business issues, integrates concepts and information quickly to present various points of views to generate a consensus. Graig is highly respected by our team for the work he has done. He was a great asset to our team.
I worked with Graig at the same client who paid us the ultimate compliment, asking us to return multiple times. Graig is a very energetic, detail oriented individual who has great technical depth. Gaig has great facilitation skills & guides clients to define what they "need to do" rather than letting them drive to the "how to" giving the solution the greatest technical flexibility.
I first worked with Graig in 2000, at PTC, where he worked as a system architect. Graig displayed a natural insight into the fundamentals of system design. He was repeatedly able to strip away the irrelevant, leaving a clear model with which to define a solution for the customer. Graig has earned my complete personal and professional respect. I have no reservations in recommending him.
Graig is a great leader. He quickly assessed the customer situation when he came on board and led both the customer and the implementation team to reach the defined objectives. Graig was a good mentor for both the junior members of the team as well as for those with experience and his technical abilities were unsurpassed in the company.
Graig is an intelligent, competent, innovative and thorough Windchill consultant/architect. He understands the Windchill system very well. He also understands the business and engineering environments of his customers. With this understanding he is very good at designing the most useful system for his clients.
Graig was an employee of mine and led several successul PLM projects at major corporations. Graig has exceptional skills as a PLM Solution Architect. He is gifted as a trusted advisor to business leaders on all elements of implementation planning, strategy, and execution. He is very personable and is an excellent team member. I would recommend Graig without reservation.
