Author Information

Mr. Lyon attended the University of Massachusetts, MIT and the University of Hartford. He held a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Hartford. He had worked in industry (General Electric, Lockheed Martin, and United Technologies) for thirty-nine years, primarily in the fields of Project Engineering and Configuration Management (CM). He served as the Lead Configuration and Project Engineer responsible for several large projects in the defense, space and commercial product areas. When he initially left the industry, Mr. Lyon spent thirteen years writing books and teaching seminars on Configuration Management throughout North America and Europe. Mr. Lyon's Configuration Management processes have provided the basis for the implementation of Product Data Management (PDM) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems in several major corporations. Mr. Lyon has been responsible for facility wide training in configuration and data management systems and procedures, and has provided hands-on training for PDM/PLM users, including CCB members, design engineers, drafting, manufacturing and quality assurance personnel, field engineers, customers, CM personnel, project engineers, and program managers. While at General Electric and Lockheed Martin, Mr. Lyon developed the four state level of control system model, a powerful methodology for integrating Configuration Management with proposal development, contract negotiation, engineering development and test, manufacturing, production, quality assurance, IT, and product support activities. Mr. Lyon was the author of the outstanding new CM text, 'Practical CM III: Best Configuration Management Practices for the 21st Century', 'Transparent CM: How to Get There', the CM community's all time favorite - 'Practical CM: Best Configuration Management Practices for the 21st Century', and 'Practical Project: Guidelines for Project Engineers and Program Management Personnel.'
