He worked for me at BA Merchant Services (BAMS)\u2026. Although he filled a role that was titled \u201cproject manager\u201d, Peter also undertook a lot of systems development and business analyst work. He was good at what he did \u2013 knowledgeable, conscientious, loyal, resourceful, a team player and used initiative to back up his abilities. Some of the projects he led saw him get very involved with the business and leading the business along with the projects, all of which was vital to the projects\u2019 successes.
