About Kevin

Nearly 40 years building
the industry's best deals.

I founded Integrimotion in 1996 and have been working exclusively in motion control and machine automation ever since. Before that, I spent eight years as VP of Sales & Marketing at Compumotor / Parker Hannifin — one of the most recognized names in the industry. I know this space from the inside out.

My practice sits at the intersection of technology, market access, and relationships. I work with manufacturers and their channel partners across North America and Asia, with active coverage in fifteen countries through a network of high-tech distributors staffed by graduate engineers. When you engage Integrimotion, you're not getting a consultant with a generic framework. You're getting three decades of dealmaking in your specific market.

What I Do

Strategic consulting for
motion control companies

Three areas where I consistently create measurable value for manufacturers, distributors, and automation companies ready to grow.

01

Market Coverage & Revenue Growth

Is your pipeline not reflecting the market opportunity? I bring a sales leadership lens and a deep distribution network to diagnose coverage gaps, sharpen go-to-market positioning, and accelerate channel performance. Whether you're entering a new vertical or trying to reclaim lost ground, I know the players and the paths.

02

Strategic Alliances & Global Partnerships

The right partner relationship can compress years of market development into months. I've built alliances between OEMs, distributors, and technology providers across the globe. I help you identify who to pursue, broker the introduction, and structure the engagement so both sides win.

03

Talent, Teams & Portfolio Growth

Growing faster means having the right people and the right product mix. I've recruited and placed top talent across the industry, and I've helped companies expand their portfolios through acquisition introductions and partnership deals. People, products, programs — I address all three.

How I Work

Boutique by design.
Intensive by nature.

The way I work is different from what you'd get from a larger firm. It's designed to be.

📞
Always reachable

Call or email at any time. I don't route you to an account manager or a support desk. You hired me, you get me.

🎯
Selective client roster

I keep no more than five active clients at a time. A conversation about whether we're the right fit comes first, always.

🤝
Network-first problem solving

Most solutions don't require reinventing the wheel. They require knowing the right person. I've spent 50 years building that network.

📋
References on request, always

I'm happy to introduce you to current and former clients and partners. Let them tell you how I create value — that's a better proof point than anything I could write here.

I will not engage unless I can over-deliver on your goals.
