Experience
President
Jan 2015 — Present
Steve Olson, founder and president of the CMS Group, developed this advisory and consulting practice to focus on outsourcing contracts; specifically, Post-Award contract startups, contract analysis, and the implementation of Contract Governance and Contract Administration Systems. Steve has 15+ years of BPO and IT outsourcing contract experience with IBM\'s Global Technology Services - Contract Initiation Services, having started up 114 contracts for the world’s leading Fortune 500 companies and U.S. Federal and State government agencies.\"Designed to prevent value leakage through rapid implementation, our patent-pending CONTRACT STARTUP PACKAGE - 5 KEYS TO SUCCESS provides best-of-breed intellectual capital for Contact Governance and Contract Administration Systems. This provides the framework, processes and identified personnel needed for those immediate contract-related needs and is scalable for our clients as they grow or as their requirements change.\" The CMS Group has very experienced practitioners that Steve has personally worked with over the last 15 years with hundreds of outsourcing contract startups experience. “We are all very experienced in Post-Award Contract Startups. Our value to our clients is that we are very effective at what we do.\" \"We know what to do and how to do it best, based on years of experience and the lessons learned from hundreds of outsourcing contracts and we can lead our clients to a quick and successful contract startup.\" \"We reduce our client’s investment cost to develop and implement their own customized Contract Administration System.” “We don’t try to be everything to everybody. This is our only focus and it’s how we provide more value for our client’s outsourcing investment.” \"With our proprietary CAT (Contract Analysis Tool), we can provide our clients with all contractual key dates, events, deliverables, and obligations for both the buyer and seller within hours.\"
