Managing Director, Customer Strategic Partner
Morgan Koh is a co-founder of ESP Consulting Pte Ltd (“ESP”), a company established in 2021 to take over a 25-year-old SAP practice at Velocity Technology Solutions (S) Pte Ltd ("Velocity-Singapore"), where he was serving as the Senior Managing Director.
During the establishment of ESP, Morgan played a key role in assembling a team of co-founders. This team comprised three colleagues from Velocity-Singapore and a former colleague who had initially established the SAP practice in 1996.
The takeover started as Management-Buy-Out ("MBO") discussions that he had with his HQ, Velocity Technology Solutions Inc (“Velocity-USA”) in May 2020. The agreement was about to be finalized when it was halted in September 2020. Three months later, in December 2020, Velocity-USA was acquired by Navisite, a US-based company headquartered in Boston. In April 2021, Morgan resumed discussions with his new management at Navisite regarding the takeover of the Singapore operations. He succeeded in the second attempt, and by September 2021, all of Velocity-Singapore’s customers and employees were successfully transitioned to ESP.
Throughout the transition, Morgan deeply appreciated the trust and support of Velocity-Singapore's customers and employees, without whom ESP would not have started. He is equally grateful to the 4 co-founders, who were willing to join him on this journey
With over 2 decades of experience in the SAP arena, Morgan brings a blend of technical expertise and business leadership to the ESP team. In his role at ESP, Morgan oversees the company’s strategic and business functions, prioritizing customer success and ensuring business consistency, predictability and profitability for his team's success.
Earlier, as the senior managing director of Velocity-Singapore, Morgan was responsible for the Profit and Loss of the Singapore operations. He provided oversight of functions such as statutory compliance, partner alliances, sales, professional services, application support, and human resources.
Before his tenure at ESP and Velocity-Singapore, Morgan accumulated over 15 years of experience in various business and technical roles involving SAP systems at companies such as Titan Technology Partners (“Titan-ESP”), General Electric Information Services, and Sembcorp Logistics.
