My Biggest Disappointments

  • After completing 2/3 of project to upgrade the Infor BPCS system to the latest version, LX, with several custom enhancements, the project was killed due to the merge of MWV and WestRock.
  • In 2007, I started David Proett Photography.  This was probably one of the worst times to start a professional services company which relies entirely on discretionary income when in 2008 the US economic was experiencing the worst recession since the great depression.  In spite of my best efforts, David Proett Photography never became a sustainable business.
  • I could not convince Insurance Companies to redirect their incoming mail to the Imaging Center in Des Moines, IA
