Revel Consulting, a Kirkland, Washington based business and IT consulting firm, announced today the appointment of Jonathan Friederichsen and Bob Wanezek as Senior Associates. Friederichsen and Wanezek, both former senior level technology managers with Washington Mutual, will focus on business engagements in Revel's growing Software-as-a-Service Practice.
"Bringing Jonathan and Bob onboard adds key veteran experience and understanding to our team," said Brett Alston, Managing Partner of Revel. "These talented professionals have proven they have the applicable skills, business discipline and the entrepreneurial spirit that are essential to our 'pure consulting' model."
Both senior associates will support the continued expansion of Revel's Software-as-a-Service Practice, evaluating need, developing strategy and implementing online services for their clients.

Previously, Wanezek was First Vice President and Senior Technology Group Manager at Washington Mutual where he was responsible for the ongoing development and deployment of corporate methodologies for software development and project portfolio management. Additionally, Wanezek spent 8 years with Microsoft, where he led a variety of program/process management teams including his latest position as Senior Procurement Manager. In this position he led Microsoft's initiative to move the company's worldwide network of third party suppliers to the cloud.
