For the past three decades, Kishore Nayak has been helping large organizations reimagine their IT infrastructure. As an executive at Daimler Chrysler in the 1990s, Nayak worked alongside corporate leaders to build IT systems that spanned the entire organization, generating more than $100 million in savings. In 2000, while an executive consultant at General Motors, he architected an enterprise-wide content management platform that significantly decreased IT costs by improving overall efficiency. The following year, Nayak joined Trelleborg AB, a multi-billion dollar industrial parts manufacturer, where he served as chief information officer and senior vice president of IT and strategy. Under his guidance, Trelleborg AB’s IT landscape was re-imagined, transforming from a monolithic legacy environment into an agile, scalable platform that reduced IT spending to less than 1.5% of the organization’s total revenue. A decade later, his record of success caught the attention of another industrial parts manufacturer, the Gates Corporation, where, as a top executive, Nayak consolidated the organization’s diverse IT systems, creating a common platform that increased productivity while saving the Gates Corporation over $50 million.
As a board member of Colorado Technology Association, the largest ecosystem of IT entrepreneurs, solution providers and systems integrator; Nayak recognized that small to medium sized organizations have been grossly under served by traditional IT providers. After assembling a team of industry-leading IT professionals, he founded Synnergie, an IT consultancy specializing in the digital transformation of small to medium sized businesses. Representing the distillation of Nayak’s decades of experience and profound expertise, his consultancy’s unique approach to IT modernization strives to reduce IT spending by enhancing operational efficiency at every level while sharing the risk and reward.
