Alan Flett is a Product Manager for the Progress Semaphore product suite. Alan has over 30 years of commercial experience developing all aspects of an enterprise’s knowledge and information management strategy and its practical implementation—concentrating on fact extraction and the Semaphore FACTS product. His knowledge of metadata and taxonomy stems from a deep understanding of conceptual modeling and semantic interoperability fundamentals. He now brings his extensive knowledge from the field to help guide the product into its next chapter as part of Progress. Outside of work, Alan enjoys stand-up paddleboarding (SUPing) in the marshes of North Norfolk (UK), reading sci-fi space operas, gardening, helping run a small rural boutique holiday cottage (SpinksNest.com) and listening to music on his audiophile hi-fi and cooking for his partner and 12-year-old daughter.
