"BOB WALTON AFFILIATES WITH RMG TO OFFER
RMG CONSULTING SERVICES TO HIGHER EDUCATION"

Bob Walton, long-time library technology industry leader, will affiliate with RMG Consultants, Inc., one of the world’s leading library technology consulting firms, to provide consulting services to Higher Education. The association will begin immediately, and was announced by Rob McGee, President of RMG, and Walton.

Walton currently serves as Vice President for Finance and Business at The College of Wooster (Wooster, OH), a position he has held since 1999. He is responsible for all college operations and fiscal planning.

Walton most recently served on the boards of two leading library automation companies. He was on the Dynix Board of Directors from November 2004 through July 2005, and prior to that served for one year as Chairman of the Board of Directors for Ex Libris USA. Before going to Wooster College, Bob served as the Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Innovative Interfaces from 1992 to 1999, and before that, as President of CLSI, Inc..

Walton will work with RMG principals to further develop RMG Consulting Services for Higher Education, building on RMG’s recent assistance to The College of Wooster in planning and procuring an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system.

“Using RMG’s methodologies and practices, Rob took us through a 6-month ERP planning and procurement process that accomplished what often has taken other institutions one or two years or more,” said Walton. “I’m enthusiastic about working with the RMG Team to take RMG’s best value planning and procurement services to the H.E. ERP sector.”

“It’s a great opportunity for all of us to work together,” McGee said. “For years we each have worked to create and maintain best practices and ethical standards in the library automation industry – RMG representing buyers, and Bob representing sellers. And before that, Bob competed with RMG as President and Founder of Walton Bridge Consulting. It is a genuine pleasure to work together now, to think and create based on our pool of knowledge and experience in the library and education industries. We want to bring the full benefits of well-engineered best value library consulting practices to the Higher Education industry. Walton brings impressive experience and expertise to RMG’s management consulting services.”
