Mr. Aulick is ECMs, CDIA+, PDI+, Project+ certified, and has been involved in the document imaging and management industry since the mid 1980′s.

Mr. Aulick is our lead consultant who enjoys showing his customers how to move away from intensive manual operations to improving operations through effective use of –the right — technology.
When Mr. Aulick entered this field he began as a component level technician servicing bar code equipment for a co-inventor of Code-39. He later started installing and servicing large document management systems for the banking industry. Mr. Aulick loved the technology and quickly became a consultant that led him to travel nationally consulting for banks and speaking at their conferences.
Mr. Aulick’s background in sales that started at the early age of 13, coupled with the last 25 years experience in the EDM / ECM industry has given him a keen understanding of all aspects of document management sales.
