Bob Alves

Mr. Robert Alves, also known as Bob, has been the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Advanced Solutions International, Inc.since October 1991 and serves as its Director. Mr. Alves had grown frustrated with the lack of customer service and the lack of a uniform product in the not-for-profit marketplace. It was his dream to create a packaged, upgradable software system a client could keep forever and never outgrow. His vision included award-winning support and a worldwide network of trained professionals to support the product. So in 1991, ASI launched iMIS, and it has become the only complete membership, fundraising and Website management solution available in one upgradeable software suite. Today, iMIS is used by more than 35,000 not-for-profit professionals everyday, supported by more than 1,000 trained and certified iMIS and Web development professionals, and established in the U.S, Canada, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Mr. Alves has more than 24 years of experience in the business of software for not-for-profit organizations. Prior to launching ASI, he was President of DISC, a software consulting firm he created. He then served as Vice President of Corporate Development for Smith Abbott, a software developer which acquired DISC. He holds a Bachelor of Business Administration from George Washington University in Washington, DC.
