Vesta Partners, a global SAP Enterprise Asset Management (SAP EAM) technology specialist, has expanded its operations into the Asia Pacific region, establishing an office in Melbourne.
Vesta’s Australia AsiaPac operations will be led by three industry leaders with global experience in asset management, maintenance and SAP EAM across a variety of asset intensive industries.
Former BHP Billiton executive and international consultant Peter Dunford will be managing director of Vesta’s Australia AsiaPac operations. Dunford will be supported by Craig Anderson, as director of operations, and Drew Parkinson, director of professional services for Vesta Australia AsiaPac.
“I am excited to be part of an organisation that shares the same values and beliefs about how to improve performance in asset management and maintenance as well as leveraging systems to support business process,” Dunford said. “We look forward to giving our clients the value that comes from being a part of the global leader in this space.”
“Vesta has some of the best thought leaders in the field of Enterprise Asset Management,” said Anderson. “We will leverage our collective knowledge and experience and focus very clearly on what we are good at – getting organisations to get the most from their asset management, maintenance and SAP systems.”
On the expansion into Australia, Mike Maiolo, Senior Partner and CEO of Vesta said, “One of the key differentiators for our firm has always been our focus on bringing together industry best practices in maintenance and asset management, with a practical and systematic approach to implementing SAP EAM solutions. This was the core foundation for building Vesta and continues to separate us from our competitors. With the team we have assembled to serve the Australia AsiaPac market, Vesta can continue to support our customers’ enterprise-wide initiatives as well as meet new global opportunities.”
