Ex-Visy CIO joins software vendor

in brief Former Visy Industries CIO Roland Spitty has joined the ranks of Australian supply and demand system vendor SolveIT Software.

Spitty will join SolveIT as the director of supply chain, based in Melbourne. Spitty left his former position at the paper and packaging company over six months ago, according to a Visy spokesperson. He had been replaced by an external candidate called Ken Major, although the spokesperson did not provide any details on where Major had come from.

Visy is one of SolveIT's customers. Other clients include ABB Grain, Rio Tinto and the Australian Defence Science and Technology Organisation.
