Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJim Mcclanahan is a seasoned technical and business leader with decades of experience helping utilities and telecoms deploy Smart Grid, AMI, and distributed energy solutions while driving cost reductions and reliability improvements. With a B.S. in Electrical Engineering and an MBA, he blends deep engineering chops—from SCADA and power quality to fiber, wireless, and BPL—with proven commercial leadership in roles that scaled service lines and supported >$65M in annual revenue. He has repeatedly led turnarounds and large deployments, including early utility broadband pilots and a company-level restructuring that preceded a strategic acquisition. At West Monroe he advises clients from strategy and business case through implementation, and his hands-on tinkering with vintage computing and modern data science signals a persistent curiosity that keeps him grounded in both legacy systems and emerging analytics. Based in Georgia, he pairs practical field experience with executive-level influence to shepherd complex, cross-functional programs to success.
