--- title: Blog | Michael Moores description: "Michael Moores is the Founder and CEO of Envalo, Inc., an eBusiness solutions company he started in 2012 to give small and mid-market manufacturers a way to compete on customer experience without enterprise-level budgets. Before Envalo, Michael held product and technology leadership roles at companies including Briteskies, PreEmptive Solutions, and Inspherion, bringing close to 20 years in B2B eCommerce and product development to the work he does today. Michael is a graduate of the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses program at Cuyahoga Community College. He leads Envalo's work building Interactive Parts Schematics and the broader enVent Suite — tools that turn static parts catalogs into live, ERP-connected ordering experiences for dealers and field technicians. What drives him is a straightforward conviction: mid-market manufacturers shouldn't have to choose between modern systems and healthy margins. He's spent his career building the systems that let them have both." --- [Skip to main content](https://envalo.com/resources/blog/author/michael-moores#main-content) [![Envalo](https://envalo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/sr-envalo/images/Envalo.png?width=96&height=32&name=Envalo.png) ![Envalo](https://envalo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/sr-envalo/images/Envalo.png?width=96&height=32&name=Envalo.png) ![Envalo](https://envalo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/sr-envalo/images/Envalo.png?width=96&height=32&name=Envalo.png) ![Envalo](https://envalo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/sr-envalo/images/Envalo.png?width=96&height=32&name=Envalo.png)](https://envalo.com) - [Show submenu for Solutions Solutions](https://envalo.com/solutions) - [Interactive Parts Solution (enIPS)](https://envalo.com/solutions/interactive-parts-schematics) - [Product Information Management (PIM)](https://envalo.com/solutions/product-information-management) - [Integrated Data Layer (IDL)](https://envalo.com/solutions/integrated-data-layer) - [Managed Services](https://envalo.com/solutions/managed-services) - [Industries](https://envalo.com/industries) - [How It Works](https://envalo.com/how-it-works) - [Pricing](https://envalo.com/pricing) - [Show submenu for Resources Resources](https://envalo.com/customers/enerco-integrated-customer-service-portal) - [Our Work](https://envalo.com/our-work) - [Our Insights](https://envalo.com/resources/blog) - [Case Studies](https://envalo.com/our-work) - [About](https://envalo.com/about) Open main navigation Close main navigation - Show submenu for Solutions Solutions - Solutions - [Solutions](https://envalo.com/solutions) - [Interactive Parts Solution (enIPS)](https://envalo.com/solutions/interactive-parts-schematics) - [Product Information Management (PIM)](https://envalo.com/solutions/product-information-management) - [Integrated Data Layer (IDL)](https://envalo.com/solutions/integrated-data-layer) - [Managed Services](https://envalo.com/solutions/managed-services) - [Industries](https://envalo.com/industries) - [How It Works](https://envalo.com/how-it-works) - [Pricing](https://envalo.com/pricing) - Show submenu for Resources Resources - Resources - [Resources](https://envalo.com/customers/enerco-integrated-customer-service-portal) - [Our Work](https://envalo.com/our-work) - [Our Insights](https://envalo.com/resources/blog) - [Case Studies](https://envalo.com/our-work) - [About](https://envalo.com/about) - [Pricing](https://envalo.com/pricing) [Request a Demo](https://envalo.com/request-a-demo) [Pricing](https://envalo.com/pricing) [Request a Demo](https://envalo.com/request-a-demo) # Manufacturing & Distribution Technology Insights Practical strategies for ERP integration, B2B eCommerce, and building scalable systems for mid-market manufacturers and distributors. ![Industrial Specialist Reviewing Schematic On Tablet](https://envalo.com/hs-fs/hubfs/AI-Generated%20Media/Images/Industrial%20Specialist%20Reviewing%20Schematic%20On%20Tablet.png?width=1536&height=1024&name=Industrial%20Specialist%20Reviewing%20Schematic%20On%20Tablet.png) ### [![The Technician Shortage Costs Dealers $7 Billion a Year.
