About
Former IT operations lead who turned chaotic dock fleets into stable, support-friendly standards across regions and vendors.
Core Beliefs
Standardization beats variety; predictability is the cheapest insurance you can buy.
Background
Our help desk lived on dock tickets until we collapsed twelve SKUs into one Thunderbolt 4 kit: dock, 100 W PSU, two labeled DP cables, and a known-good USB-C cable. Procurement loved the predictability. Users loved the single cable. Ticket volume fell, and onboarding stopped improvising.
Perspective
I prefer single-SKU, cross-platform kits even if unit cost is higher.
