Bob Cherniak provides Cherniak Software clients the \'something extra\', the creative spark. Bob has led the development of ERP systems that serve as the nerve centers of the organizations that use them in such areas as Discrete Manufacturing, Continuous Process Manufacturing, Wholesale Distribution, Project Management, Professional Services, Real Estate, Health Care, Association Membership Management, Insurance & Financial Services, and Alumni Engagement. Bob is a graduate of Engineering Science at the University of Toronto. He has lectured at both at the University of Toronto and York University. He has been active for a long time in various volunteer activities (e.g. Big Brothers, Frontier College), and still manages to squeeze in some time for canoe tripping in the far north, and for hiking, woodworking, and reading.
