SmartPM Technologies, a leading construction-project analytics provider, has hired two new senior vice presidents to the executive team. Lance Kirby will serve as the Senior Vice President of Client Experience, while Alexandre Teplitxky has assumed the position of Senior Vice President of Marketing.
For two decades, Kirby’s primary focus has been accelerating the adoption of BIM and VDC practices with architects, engineers, contractors, and owners. In his new role, he will oversee the post-sales experience, working with each customer to ensure they receive maximum value from the SmartPM platform. He came from Customer Success and Business Consulting at Autodesk and was Director of Customer Success at Building Systems Design (BSD).
Teplitxky has a proven track record of developing successful product and marketing strategies in the construction technology space. As SVP of Marketing, Teplitxky will oversee all efforts and campaigns to raise awareness of the SmartPM brand. Before joining SmartPM, he was the Head of Marketing at ALICE Technologies Inc., the world’s first AI-powered construction optimization platform. He also worked at Procore, where he was responsible for new product launches for international markets.
Kirby received his Bachelor of Architecture from the Mississippi State University College of Art, Architecture, and Design. His business skills include Six Sigma, LUMA, Leadership Strategies Master Facilitation, Situational Leadership, and Visual Strategy Facilitation.
Teplitxky obtained his Bachelor of Arts degree from San Diego State University in International Business. He is well versed in a number of business disciplines, most notably Enterprise Marketing, Strategic Marketing, and Branding & Identity.
“Successful solution adoption comes from understanding the customer’s needs and setting expectations about what we will achieve together,” noted Kirby. “Our customers partner with us to solve business problems. Our job in CX is to help guide them to those solutions that will have the biggest impact but require the least effort.”
“Being associated with such a great product and great team is truly a thrill for me,” said Teplitxky. “SmartPM already has a great market presence and is recognized as an invaluable tool for schedule analysis. My goal is to build on that reputation by conveying the product’s capabilities and how instrumental they can be in helping customers deliver more projects on budget and on time.”
