The Big Picture
Todays world is complex; and to compete, our solutions must be involved and detailed. The recipe for failure is to seek a solution to a problem without considering the full context, such as existing system and integration details, constraints and limitations; cost factors, including rewriting exiting system or retraining human operators; ongoing ease of maintenance issues related to each option; and flexibility to allow for multiple unknown future contigencies.
My deep understanding of the world in general, and the tech universe in particular, allows me to consult, suggest and implement the best solution the first time.

Balancing Act
Every non-trivial endeavor has to balance several factors all at once. The choice of technology platform, the design of business processes, and even , including speed and cost to market vs. ease of long term maintenance.
Problem Solving
Claiming the skill of Creative Problem Solving is vastly overdone these days. But, my unique ability to grasp the overall context along with my understanding and experience in balancing all relevant factors, technological and human, allows me to not only claim superior problem solving skills, but to actuall back up the claim with success.
