About me – the most difficult text in my life :)

Probably, the most difficult is writing about yourself. Especially, when it comes to“selling” yourself well, here and now, as it is required by present reality. That is the purpose of this web site, and that is the reason it came to existence :). Are you wondering how and what to write? You are thinking, browsing the internet and find many interesting articles and advice on how and what to write to convince people to “buy” you. Then, you sit down and try to rig something up... and realise this is not it. That this is not your style (plain and simple), and that your inner “tooth” becomes aching from all that sweetness and light you are about to absorb.

You say STOP! I will write in my own style. Listen
Dear reader, I hereby present to you... myself :)
All the personal data, typical CV data can be found on my LinkedIn profile. Linked-In.
I am not a penman, at all. However, I do know about other fields in which my knowledge could be helpful to you. Everything I do in my life I do with passion and thanks to that passion I do enjoy what I am doing. I shall keep my personal passion to myself, but my two professional ones would be: information technology – IT, and shooting sports. You can find out about shooting a bit later, but for now, I will tell you little more about IT. What am I really into and what has been giving me the most satisfaction for the past 18 years? It is the thought that I can learn about the business, assess it, offer effective solution, supervise its execution, and then observe how my proposed IT solution enables my clients to fix their business difficulties. In a nut shell, I resolve my clients` business issues with the means of information technology.

My IT work revolves around:
  • keeping up with the newest IT solutions, keeping in mind the old ones which proved effective in the past
  • getting to know my clients` business needs
  • deciding on and designing customized IT solutions
  • documenting the clients` needs in the form of business and requirements analyses
  • substantive support regarding EU subsidy applications
  • IT project assessment / cost estimate
  • conducting presentations, courses, and trainings
  • contract subject descriptions, drafting contracts for tenders
  • acting as a “contract engineer” for the purposes of contract supervision and performance
Contact me today to find out how we can start working together.


Business analysis – let me learn about your problem and business. Then, let me compile documentation of the solution to your business issues.

Requirements analysis should always come first before any “off the shelf”, or tailor-made software application is implemented, and the contract signed. However, this is the step often overlooked by investors, but in my professional view it is of utmost importance. Simply, I do not accept assignments which lack appropriate and project-specific data, as that can only mean problems in the future.

Dear client, never ignore this step in any IT project. It provides the foundation for understanding your business, and its issues, by potential provider (often, you can also learn a lot), as well as the requirements criteria for the functionality of the IT solutions being implemented.

My implementing requirements analysis will provide you with:
  • coherent view of the system
  • business requirements specification
  • business processes models
  • functional and non-functional requirements specification
  • test scripts and collection criteria
  • mock-up forms / clickable layouts
  • graphic designs
Contact me today to find out how my services can be of help to you.


Contract subject description – remember, what you describe is what you get

It does not matter how detailed it would be, analytical data is not everything. It will never specify technical, formal and/or financial conditions of IT project implementation, simply because it is not what it is supposed to feature. Its purpose is to highlight the details regarding the protection of the implementation process. Namely, whether it is aligned with company`s goals, and whether it would facilitate decision making process when it comes to choosing the provider with project relevant potential.

My services would also include preparation of the following documentation:
  • contract subject value assessment
  • Terms of reference for tenders
  • description of the subject of the contract with attachments
  • contract drafting
  • project schedule
  • project implementation process phase acceptance criteria
  • warranty terms and conditions

Contract engineer – sometimes it is worth to stand on the other side

As a Client, you need to make sure that your provider adheres to all of the contract terms and conditions, and will ensure IT solutions that are in line with them. As a third party, I can offer a broad range of services aimed at protecting your interests.

Why is it worth it to employ a contract engineer?

From the preliminary project, to the building, testing and software implementation phases in your organization, such support would enable you to:
  • benefit from the broad range of services provided by a contract engineer, an expert in building and implementing IT systems
  • make sure the contract signed between you and your provider is being executed in accordance with all the agreed terms and conditions, and your interests
  • independently monitor the project schedule - find out beforehand when there is potential threat to the project and its product design quality
  • concentrate strictly on your business operations without restricting your employees to supervising the project
I can also offer:
  • technical support during contract terms negotiations
  • technical consultation regarding the subject of the contract technical
  • product review and post-completion documentation
  • testing process and product quality supervision
  • compatibility cross-check and verifying the finished product in terms of its compliance with the contracted specifications and your expectations
  • IT system implementation process supervision
  • substantive support in mediation between you and the provider
  • implementation effectiveness assessment: cross-check between what was provided and what was expected
Contact me today to find out how my services can be of help to you.


IT consultation – think and use other`s knowledge and experience before you begin the project.

Majority of my clients possess vast business knowledge in particular areas. However, they do not possess professional knowledge from the field of information technology. So, if you do know your business, you want to grow and need expertise of independent consultant - contact me. I will help you and advise on choosing optimal solution for you.


„Always to the point...”

I think every person, apart from their professional career, should have some sort of escape from this twisted world so they do not go mad. My hobby, my passion, my “other work” (whatever you name it) is shooting sports with the use of: pistol, rifle, and a smooth barrel shotgun. The area of particular interest in developing my skills would be disciplines such as: standard pistol, semi-automatic, Trap, Double Trap, Parcour, Dynamic shooting IPSC.

Apart from trainings and sports competition, as the chairman of the board of the SKAUT sports club in Bielsko-Biala, I try to promote shooting sports among youth and new candidates. Moreover, I am an active member of the Polish Shooting Sports Association, a referee, and also a licenced shooting sports instructor.

Considering that shooting, apart from IT, is my real passion, I can share my experience and (I am hoping) to inspire you with it by:
  • providing you with shooting sports health & safety regulations training
  • practising with you the basics of static and dynamic shooting
  • training you with the selected sports disciplines I practice, and know my share about
  • introducing you to the shooting sports world and helping you in acquiring firearms and members licence
Contact me today to find out how we can start our journey together into the world of shooting sports.
