Steve Reynolds Joins Management Alternatives

Steve Reynolds, former executive vice president of TRX, has joined Norwalk, Conn.-based consulting firm Management Alternatives as vice president of technical solutions, the company today announced.

Reynolds joins Management Alternatives with an extensive background in technology solutions. Most recently, he served as regional vice president for ACS, a business process outsourcing and IT provider, managing outsourced onshore and offshore operations for multiple airlines and online travel distributors. At TRX, Reynolds' responsibilities included the sales, development, delivery and support of online booking tool ResX and Correx, a mid-office transaction processing application.

"I first met Steve while he was with TRX and we worked together on a project for NBTA," Carol Ann Salcito, president of Management Alternatives, said in a statement. "Steve's technology background will add a dimension to our group's multinational services."

Prior to TRX, Reynolds served as a systems architect for Competitive Technologies Inc., a subsidiary of the former Houston-based Lifeco Travel, whose corporate travel solutions included Lifesite, a reporting tool and PDQ, a pre-trip reporting tool. In 1993, American Express acquired Competitive Technologies Inc. and Reynolds stayed with the company for two years, supporting solutions for Fortune 1000 companies, before joining the management team that launched TRX.

"Steve's visionary leadership for travel-related technology has helped define the modern- day managed travel experience," Will Tate, vice president of Management Alternatives, said in a statement. "His constant client focus and forward-thinking problem-solving experiences will enhance our service offerings in a unique way."
