Mike Kerrigan started his career with 17 years of practical, real-world logistics expertise as the COO for a Global Japanese company.  In 1994, Mike Kerrigan was part of one of the first mid-sized SAP implementations in the US. As one of the key client team members, he was responsible for implementing materials management and production planning, including all core SAP modules and strategic corporate functionality using SAP’s Profitability Analysis. His company became one of SAP’s top client success stories in 1994. More importantly, SAP used his company as the top reference site for future customers. The implementation methodology used on his project eventually became the SAP ASAP methodology.  In 1995, Mr. Kerrigan was hired to create a middle market focused SAP implementation consulting practice for a Midwest-based consultancy. He overachieved in this role, creating a 250 person, highly successful SAP implementation group that won the prestigious SAP Partner of the Year Award for three consecutive years. Over the last 15 years, Mike Kerrigan has been the executive in charge of helping over 100 clients go live on SAP. In 2001 Mike was the partner in charge of ERP solutions with a global consulting and operations staff of 700 people.  Mike continued his SAP implementation successes for the last 15 years across all major industry sectors. His combination of real world logistics/management experience and SAP Global expertise place him in an unrivalled position of value to our clients.
