Systems integration consultant. Microsoft stack, since 1998.
Mark Beckner plans, builds, and repairs business systems — Dynamics 365, Power Platform, Azure, SQL, .NET, BizTalk, EDI, and the systems around them — working directly with every client through Inotek Consulting Group, the Colorado practice he founded in 2007.
The first decade was spent inside the enterprise — on implementation teams and client sites, building the kinds of systems he now gets called in to repair. It is where the working method was set: understand the business before the platform, and treat the seams between systems as the real project.
In 2007 he founded Inotek Consulting Group and went independent. The model has not changed since: one senior consultant, direct with every client. No account managers, no hand-offs — when a project needs more hands, trusted specialists work alongside him, never instead of him.
The books had already started — fifteen of them between 2006 and 2018 — along with the MSDN Magazine years and bylines in Entrepreneur, ComputerWorld, CMSWire, and SD Times. The client list, meanwhile, stopped turning over: most stay for years, several are past the decade mark. Hundreds of implementations planned, built, and repaired.
Fifteen books and four MSDN Magazine features, plotted the year they shipped. Selected project work continues the line after the books. Walk it left to right — it is the evolution of the Microsoft integration stack, BizTalk to Azure, with the manual written at each step. The line keeps going.
