Leadership at Northern Collaborative Technologies
Founder Andrew Pollack grew up in Arizona and moved to New England in his twenties. In 1993 he moved from the Boston area to Maine to start a family. Frustrated with the practices and compromises in the consulting firms he'd worked with in the past, he decided to start his own firm with the specific goal of doing things in a way more consistent with the ethics and values important to him. People from Maine will tell you that theirs is "The way life should be" and this is the premise behind Northern Collaborative Technologies.
As a direct result of his dedication to "Ethical Consulting", Mr. Pollack is extremely proud of the fact that more than half of his firm's revenue is generated through trusted peer relationships with other industry leading consulting firms and has been a member of the highly influential "Penumbra Group" for more than 25 years.
Mr. Pollack has been working with the Domino & Notes platform since 1991, and is considered a leading expert in application development, administration tasks, and security related to that platform. His clients have included several fortune 500 corporations and HCL Software itself. He has written and spoken extensively on using application development skills to produce automation on the administrative side. This often results in lower costs and faster response to users. Andrew has been a speaker and featured expert at more than a dozen industry conferences around the world.
Though primarily focused on technologies related to IBM Lotus Notes and Domino, Andrew has also developed unique in the emerging VoIP (Internet Telephony), instant messaging, and emergency communications space. This kind of cross-technology integration is the hallmark of his creative approach to problem solving.
As the President of Northern Collaborative Technologies, Mr. Pollack is personally responsible for dozens of projects each year ranging from short term troubleshooting engagements for other firms to full scale architectural implementations. He has acted as an "Expert Witness" in matters pertaining to HCL Domino security, and is responsible for producing three commercial products as an ISV for the Lotus Notes and Domino community.
Mr. Pollack is personally available to his clients both by appointment and on an emergency basis.
In addition to his consulting role, Andrew was a Lieutenant with the Cumberland Fire Department. As the Lieutenant on the storied Engine 1, he was responsible for safely leading a crew into hazardous environments when the need arises.
He retired from firefighting in 2021.
