FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Peace Software Appoints Senior
VP of Operations to Manage North American Market Growth
Ron Farmer to Head Up North American
Operations for Peace Software
ATLANTA, GA., November 9, 1999 - Peace Software today announced
the appointment of Ron Farmer, 41, to senior vice president of North
American Operations. Prior to joining Peace, Farmer was CEO of Debitek,
Inc. since 1995, a smart card systems integrator based in Chattanooga,
Tennessee. Farmer brings over 15 years of management expertise to
Peace Software.
Farmer formerly held senior sales management positions at Oracle
and Brock Control Systems. At Oracle, he directed sales of Oracle
products and services to top U.S. telecommunications companies,
helping customers to transition to a deregulated market. He will
oversee sales, marketing, customer service, professional services
and administration at Peace 's headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia.
"Ron Farmer is a valuable addition to the Peace management
team and is joining as we expand in the North American market, said
Brian Peace, chief executive and founder, Peace Software. As utility
customers resolve Y2K issues, they will begin to select and deploy
new customer information systems (CIS) that can help them compete
in the deregulated utility market. Ron will be instrumental in helping
to manage North American operations as we experience rapid growth
and address an even larger customer base."
"The U.S. utility market will move en-masse to address deregulation,
and the selection of web-based CIS solutions will be key to enabling
utilities to compete," said Farmer. "Peace is ideally
positioned to benefit from the transition to a deregulated environment
because the company has a proven product and established worldwide
customer base, combined with a leading-edge technical solution that
is unmatched in the market."
Farmer holds a Masters of Management in Finance and Marketing from
the J.L. Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University,
as well as a B.S. in Business from Virginia Tech.
