I take your UEM architecture further.
You may be planning a new architecture, enabling secure mobile access to internal apps or reviewing existing policies. I make the dependencies between BlackBerry UEM, apps, identity, networks and operations visible – and turn them into an informed decision.
I develop alternatives, challenge assumptions and give you a clear recommendation. With the reasoning behind it.
Think it through. Test it. Take a position.
For a new architecture, I establish which access methods and security mechanisms fit your environment. In a review, I examine how existing settings interact, the assumptions behind them and where changes would help. Technical feasibility, protection and ongoing operations belong in the same discussion.
I enjoy complex requirements, new possibilities and a well-argued challenge. I look for ways to simplify a design or achieve more than initially seemed possible. That thinking must produce something tangible: a reasoned recommendation, explicit prerequisites and practical next steps for your team.
Advisory work runs throughout my career, both independently and in technical roles at Good Technology and BlackBerry. I go into detail with administrators and explain the consequences to decision-makers.

You get something you can decide with.
- Clarify the outcome and constraints.What must become possible? Which requirements and dependencies are fixed?
- Compare feasible routes.Evaluate user experience, protection, cost and administration together.
- Document the decision.Capture the target design, rejected options, outstanding prerequisites and pilot criteria.
My focus is architecture and design, and security and policy reviews. Implementation and training can follow. A concrete decision example shows the approach for an internal iPhone web app.
