About Scott Herbst

I am a product owner to deliver value to the end user. I gather the details and requirements, understand the vision of what is wanted. I prioritize and keep the engineers on track. The least amount of risk is to go forward and push to move items into the future. I am a problem-solver and doer. For example, I was placed in charge of migrating our 5 largest clients to there own servers. I came up with the dates, gathered and added to the expectation sheet. The dates and times where then set, all teams where notified, the tasks then completed and the migration project ended. • Strategic Planning • Cost & Budgeting • Custom Software Development• New Method Applications • Time Management • Detail-Oriented• Problem Solving & Solutions • Research • Client Relationships
