Over the years I’ve been interviewed in the media a number of times. Sometimes it’s very simple, sometimes more involved. I will be making more of an effort to get all these media connections here onto the EPM Guidance blog. Here is the latest. I was recently interviewed on the XRaised podcast and got to talk about the 40 years of leading HMS Software and the remarkable 30 year history of TimeControl. You can see…
HMS Software, the company I run and founded turns 40 this year. If you had asked me back in 1984 if I thought the company would be around 40 years hence I’d have laughed. I was in my mid 20s at the time. The idea of anything lasting 40 years was mind boggling but here we are.

I was delighted to be interviewed by David Ledge of the popular, Leaders of B2B Podcast.

I’d have missed it frankly because it’s not a massive announcement but I confess I was tickled pink to see HMS Software on page 26 of the July/August issue of Oracle Magazine announcing the naming of HMS Software as a Gold Partner in the Oracle Partner Network. The magazine is also online and you can see our 15 minutes of fame in the July/August Oracle Partner News segment on the Oracle website.
