Founded by Dean Vesling

In 1989 after working 27 years with IBM in various engineering and management positions at locations throughout the United States and Japan. Dean held a BS degree in Industrial Engineering from Penn State with additional graduate education at Syracuse University and was a Certified Management Consultant (CMC) from the Institute of Management Consultants. Dean passed away on May 22, 2016. He will be missed by all that came to know and love him.

We Can Do That!

“One of Dean’s first clients was a former colleague from IBM”, relates Gerry Wilhelm, DVA General Manager. “He called late on a Friday, with a critical situation at a client and asked Dean if he could provide a consultant with a very unique skill set to assist his team In Southern California? Oh, and they had to be there at 8:00 AM on Monday! Dean’s response was: “We Can Do That!” Much to the delight of the client, a highly qualified professional was engaged and two days later was on site ready to go.”
