Former Polaris board member takes on role to implement bleeding edge technologies<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dave Cox, President of Polaris Transportation Group is pleased to announce the appointment of Dave Brajkovich to the position of Chief Technology Officer. Since 2015 Dave Brajkovich actively served on Polaris\u2019s board of directors before accepting this newly created position. Dave will be based out of the Polaris head office facility in Mississauga, ON and will report directly to President, Dave Cox.<\/p>\n

As Chief Technology Officer, Dave will have key accountabilities for leading and maintaining a robust technical ecosystem for the Polaris Transportation Group. One of the first steps will be to enhance Polaris\u2019s current technical foundation and align with a newly formed road map for scalable growth. The ultimate objective is to provide Polaris the foundation to be a uniquely different provider of freight services with enhanced digital product capabilities in the future. Emphasis will be placed on bleeding edge technologies such as Robotic Process Automation, AI, and Blockchain.<\/p>\n

Mr. Cox explains, \u201cDave is an excellent fit to complement our future growth plans. Our enhanced technology framework will be a critical element in further expanding our footprint in North America and beyond. Having Dave\u2019s experience with larger Fortune 500 companies, combined with his natural leadership skills, will greatly improve our ability to navigate and implement the systems, processes and innovation that will put us well ahead of the curve in serving our clients\u2019 requirements. This is all part of our mandate to make it really simple and seamless to do business with Polaris.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Brajkovich\u2019s educational background includes a diploma in Production Engineering from George Brown, followed up by specialized university programs at York University in Toronto, Darden\u2019s School of Business at the University of Virginia and several ITIL leadership certifications. The additional courses and experience refined his skills in IT processes, management and business leadership best practices. Recent positions held include Executive Director roles with Sun Life Canada, Air Liquide and Dynacare Labs where his focus was on IT technology foundations and business application synergies.<\/p>\n

Dave Brajkovich lives in Hockley Valley with his wife and two daughters. His additional interests include assembly and operation of drone helicopters and he is an avid motorcyclist. According to Dave, \u201cThis opportunity gives me the ability to create positive change in an industry that will continue to get more sophisticated in the management of customers\u2019 supply chains. Polaris is at a size where it can quickly adapt to the changes necessary to implement ground breaking technologies. It will be an exciting time for me and Polaris. The immediate future includes the creation of a digital lab at our head office and onboarding talented young minds to help us on our aggressive path to even greater success at the Polaris Group of Companies.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
