J C Walker Concepts
Joanna Catherine Walker MSc. BA
I am an experienced SAP Fieldglass implementation consultant. I have successfully designed, built, tested and implemented Fieldglass modules spanning Services Procurement, Contingent Workforce, and Worker Profile Management. With a deep and broad knowledge of the software's capabilities, I can go beyond translating requirements into functional and technical specifications and create additional value by advising clients on previously unconsidered options and the impact on existing processes, technologies and users. I have also managed complex integrations using variants of Fieldglass connectors.
I take pride in conducting extensive testing to detect potential issues, which has been instrumental in achieving demanding timelines while maintaining quality and budgets.
In addition to technical excellence, I build trusted relationships with client and project teams which I consider essential to delivering a successful outcome.
