Glenn Rumfellow shares how he went from tinkering with early computers to leading technology for the largest Window World operations in the country. His background across mainframe systems, enterprise imaging platforms, and complex Access and SQL applications shaped his approach to designing reliable systems that scale with the business.

He explains how a long standing Access based CRM supported the company for nearly two decades and outlines the ongoing transition into a modern web application backed by SQL and Azure services. Glenn describes the level of data movement, automation, and reporting required when a company handles tens of thousands of installations each year. API integrations, structured reporting, and database mail have become essential to keeping the operation efficient and accountable.
