We are very pleased to have Cormac Garvey with us today.

Cormac’s career spans factory automation, control systems, systems architecture, software prototyping and information modelling.

· Cormac, before we start, can you introduce us to your world.

· You’ve described yourself as working at the plumbing end of data analytics. Can you explain what that means?

· Who uses the data and what do they use it for?

· Having worked with and mastered a wide range of software tools over your career, what go-to approaches are in your consulting toolbox?

· Can you give us a sketch of your approach to requirements capture?

· How do you approach conceptual design? Both as an individual consultant and as a member of a team?

· And translating a conceptual design into the full project?

· What for you, is the essence of design?

Well, we’ll wrap up there.

Thank you for sharing your ideas with us today.
