TriStar Adds Ex-PTC Channel Mgr Tim Murdoch to EVP Sales
 PHOENIX,
AZ, Jun 16, 2009 - TriStar Inc. is pleased to announce that it has appointed
Tim Murdoch to the position of executive vice president of sales and has
again expanded its regional support across the United States.
Murdoch, who is based in Pittsburgh, brings to TriStar eight years of
experience with PTC, where he most recently held the position of senior
North American channel director - strategic partners and programs. With his
new role, he is tasked with increasing the company’s capacity across North
America and implementing a development plan to strengthen its existing team.
“I joined TriStar because (TriStar President) Pat Maderia is a fantastic
entrepreneur with great vision,” Murdoch said. “TriStar has a great
foundation upon which to build, and I saw a huge potential to help take the
company to a completely new level of performance.”
With more and more companies adopting Pro/ENGINEER and Windchill software
solutions, along with PTC’s desire to transfer more of their direct business
to resellers, there has been a demonstrated need for substantial growth in
the VAR channel. To meet this demand, TriStar will fill out its team with
knowledgeable sales executives and technical professionals with expertise in
all the company’s business units – software, training, consulting services,
staffing, maintenance, and hardware.
“Tim brings with him a vast amount of experience and some incredible
relationships with PTC,” said Maderia. “By forging a closer partnership with
PTC and with Tim leading our sales force, I’m confident we will take TriStar
to the next level.”
“A larger geographic footprint and a more solid foundation are obviously
essential to our growth and profitability,” said Murdoch. “But it is just as
important to our customers and the CAD/CAM market as a whole to have access
to the unmatched resources, expertise, and stability that TriStar provides.”
The company has appointed four new account managers. Kyle O’Connor is
based in the Boston area and will serve the northeastern U.S. Jeff Kocik is
located in Orlando and will support Florida. Roger Aulicino, who is based in
Phoenix, will handle Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and southern Nevada.
Darin Clark of Houston will serve Louisiana and parts of Texas. TriStar also
recently added sales professionals and technical resources to support the
northwest U.S. region.
