Alan Lord is an experienced open source consultant and entrepreneur with over a decade helping organisations select, implement and support CRM and enterprise open source solutions, particularly vtiger CRM, OpenERP and Alfresco. As owner of Libertus Solutions (formerly The Open Learning Centre) he combines hands-on technical know-how with commercial and training expertise to guide public and private sector clients through licensing, deployment and long-term maintenance. His background spans product and marketing leadership in telecoms and digital communications, giving him a rare blend of technical credibility and go-to-market experience. Based in Waverley, England, he pairs practical sysadmin familiarity with Ubuntu and Canonical partnerships with a pragmatic approach to open source strategy. Outside work he’s a family man and self-described “geek” who brings the same convivial, down-to-earth energy to client relationships that he does to community and product advocacy.
