Jim Hum­ri­c­house

Pres­i­dent

Jim Hum­ri­c­house joined Pin­na­cle in 2001 and has played a crit­i­cal role in estab­lish­ing and build­ing all aspects of Pinnacle’s ser­vice deliv­ery model, includ­ing Pinnacle’s Man­aged Ser­vices prac­tice and numer­ous aspects of Pro­gata™, Pinnacle’s pro­pri­etary, web-based ven­dor man­age­ment solu­tion. Mr. Hum­ri­c­house was pro­moted to Vice Pres­i­dent in 2003 and to Pres­i­dent in 2004.

Jim’s back­ground in cor­po­rate finance and strat­egy has enabled him to impact Pinnacle’s growth sig­nif­i­cantly through the estab­lish­ment of strong finan­cial con­trols, oper­at­ing prac­tices, infor­ma­tion tech­nol­ogy infra­struc­ture and inter­nal orga­ni­za­tional struc­tur­ing. As a result, Pin­na­cle has been able to grow its rev­enue base more than 100 times since mid-2002 and sig­nif­i­cantly increase its client port­fo­lio and indus­try penetration.

Most recently, Jim’s efforts have been focused on the devel­op­ment and pro­mo­tion of Pro­gata™. Dur­ing the past year, Pinnacle’s inter­nal imple­men­ta­tion of this tool has been a key fac­tor in the firm’s abil­ity to grow expo­nen­tially while main­tain­ing the high­est lev­els of cus­tomer ser­vice. Pro­gata™ is now being pro­vided to Pinnacle’s clien­tele and has estab­lished itself as one of the key con­trib­u­tors to Pinnacle’s growth trajectory.

Prior to join­ing Pin­na­cle, Jim served as a strate­gic adviser with McK­in­sey & Com­pany, a glob­ally rec­og­nized leader in the field of strat­egy con­sult­ing. Mr. Hum­ri­c­house also held posi­tions with two lead­ing invest­ment banks – Bar­clays de Zoete Wedd and Kid­der, Peabody & Co., where he focused on merg­ers and acqui­si­tions, bank­rupt­cies, cor­po­rate reor­ga­ni­za­tions, and a vari­ety of cap­i­tal struc­tur­ing trans­ac­tions. Jim has an MBA from Har­vard and a Bachelor’s degree in Finance from the Hon­ors Busi­ness Pro­gram at The Uni­ver­sity of Texas at Austin.
