LANSING ? Ken Theis, the Director of the Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget and the state’s Chief Information Officer, will take a new job on Oct. 1 – as Chief Operating Officer for technology consultant Dewpoint Inc.
Before his 12-years of service with the State of Michigan, Theis worked 10 years at General Motors providing support to GM business, sales and marketing divisions.
?Dewpoint has an impeccable reputation and real depth of technical knowledge,? said Theis. ?I am excited to rejoin the private sector at Dewpoint. This is a good fit and I believe I can make a real contribution in technology consultation.?
Dewpoint CEO Andy Kotarba said too many talented people have left Michigan for other markets. So he?s happy to keep Theis in Michigan.
?It is people like Ken Theis that have a vision and can see the opportunity in this area?s adversity who will bring us through the challenges of recovery and reinvention,? Kotarba said. ?Ken?s leadership, experience and skills will help bring a stronger message to C-Level business offices, and our consultants will be better equipped to provide business technology plans and solutions that are more relevant and compelling.?
Dewpoint works in government, health care, education, manufacturing, retail, and financial services. Kotarba said Theis will strengthen Dewpoint?s consulting, technology and service offerings in Virtualization, Cloud Computing, Business Intelligence, Identity Management and Datacenter Support.
Dewpoint?s corporate headquarters is in Lansing. The company also has additional offices in Indiana, Ohio, Western Pennsylvania and Tennessee.
