LENEXA, KS--(Marketwire - September 4, 2009) - Mediware Information Systems, Inc. (
"I'm very pleased to add Alan to our management team as Senior Vice President of Corporate Development," said Thomas Mann, Mediware's president and chief executive officer. "Alan has a broad professional history, a wealth of industry expertise and is acutely experienced in managing business development programs."
Mr. Wittmer has more than 19 years of experience in various healthcare information technology companies. "At 3M, Alan managed numerous acquisitions and a divestiture for the HIS division. He also oversaw 3M's HIS alliance program which grew revenue at a compounded rate of over 25% during the past three years," continued Mr. Mann.
In addition to more than a decade at 3M, Mr. Wittmer was one of two executives who launched PACE Health Management Systems where he led the development of an advanced bedside charting system for acute care hospitals. 3M acquired PACE in 1998. Prior to PACE Mr. Wittmer worked for Motorola, AT&T and Digital Equipment Corporation in various sales and marketing roles.
