Waste Management - Background
Waste Management, Inc. (a $16.72 billion Market Cap Company) is the premier company in North America
providing comprehensive waste management services. Based in Houston, the Company operates an unequalled
network of service facilities that serves more than twenty (20) million municipal, commercial, industrial and
residential customers.
Waste Management had gone through hundreds of acquisitions allowing each company to run autonomously. As
a result, Waste Management was experiencing significant issues in sustaining a cost effective and efficient
business operating model. Waste Management initiated an enterprise-wide transformation of its core business
processes of human resources, finance, treasury/cash management, procurement and revenue management - as
well as its supporting organizational structure and information technology. 2002 culminated with the IT Finance
Group winning the Financial Leadership Award from PeopleSoft (beating out companies like Honda and Toyota).
Project Highlights:
Bradley Trychta joined the project as the Director of Finance for the BEST (Building Enterprise Systems
Together) program. Under his leadership, the program established a Program Management Office (PMO) and a
senior multi-disciplined project team consisting of business strategy consultants, functional business specialists
and technology professionals which launched a multi-year enterprise-wide transformation program. The entire
initiative was planned as a three-phase effort over a three-year period. Multi-disciplined teams from Waste
Management and consulting partner jointly developed a future vision that included:
• Phased, concurrent deployments
• Implementation of a Shared Service Center
• Tight intercompany controls
• Standardization of finance business processes incorporating best practices design attributes across 1,200
autonomous business units/locations in North America
• Implementation of PeopleSoft’s Finance modules (GL, AM, AP and ePro):
o Converted and configured approximately 2,900 business units
o Converted approximately 425,000 assets
o Converted approximately 215,000 vendors
o Converted approximately 32 million general ledger lines
o Developed over 20 external interfaces
• Standardization and streamlining of enterprise-wide reporting processes:
o Batch reports generated daily – approx. 1,500
o Month-end reports – approx. 55,000
• Creation of an enterprise-wide data warehouse for customer, market segment and financial analysis
• Reduction of the month-end close cycle from twelve days to seven
• Taking a decentralized company and building a centralized shared service organization for accounts
payable and payroll
• Standardizing the Chart of Accounts and Product Codes
• Tightening up capital spending by implementing stronger processes and an integrated Asset System

The near term benefits of the transformation program were to stabilize the current business-operating environment
and reduce cost, which will enable client management to focus on core value added business functions (sales,
operations and customer service). Long-term qualitative and quantitative benefits will focus on:
• Increased productivity and improved resource optimization
• Improved customer service
• Greater financial controls
• Defined performance measures aligned with business strategy
• Enhanced decision making capabilities
• Flexibility for future growth and continuous improvement
Under Bradley’s supervision, the finance applications have been successfully deployed across all North American
operations. Bradley’s group was also responsible for the v8.4 upgrade of the financial applications suite, as well
as the implementation of PeopleSoft’s Enterprise Performance Management application.
Exelon Corporation – Background
Exelon Corporation ($30.65 Billion Market Cap Company) is a public utility holding company that, through its
subsidiaries, operates in three business segments: Energy Delivery, Generation and Enterprises. Energy Delivery
consists of Exelon's regulated energy delivery operations conducted by Commonwealth Edison Company and
PECO Energy Company. The Enterprise business consists primarily of the energy services business of Exelon
Services, Inc., the district cooling business of Exelon Thermal Holdings, Inc., the electrical contracting business
of F&M Holdings, Inc., a communications joint venture and other investments weighted towards the
communications, energy services and retail services industries.
Project Highlights:
Bradley Trychta joined Exelon in May of 2004 as the Director of Finance Systems reporting directly to the Vice
President of Corporate Accounting. Through Bradley’s leadership and the Vice President of IT, the Executives at
Exelon have built a 5-year rolling Financial Blue Print that is tightly aligned with the company mission statement
to be the best run Utility. The blue print began to roll out in the 3rd
and 4th
Quarter of 2004 focusing on Sarbanes
Oxley Compliance and reducing the month-end and year-end close. Exelon is now able to have earnings by the
end of business day three (3) and final consolidated balance sheets by day five (5). In 2005, Bradley’s team
focused on management reporting and compliance tracking by delivering Generation and Nuclear Reporting as
well as a Reconciliation Tracker. In 2005 and 2006, Bradley was also tasked with leading the financial
integration between the failed merger of Exelon and Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated (PSEG) that
would have formed Exelon Electric & Gas ($43.6 Billion Market Cap Company). Bradley and his team built a
two phase conversion approach, the first focusing on Consolidations of the entities on day one and the second
phase to bring PSEG onto the current Exelon Systems over the next nine months. In 2007, Bradley lead a team to
focus on Exelon’s financial transformation called Mission First. In 2007, Bradley’s team implemented Global
Consolidations and upgraded the data warehouse to ensure Exelon was merger ready. In 2008 and 2009, Bradley
was tasked to implement Hyperion Reporting, FERC Ledger, Intercompany Billing and Executive Dashboards as
part of the Mission First Project now called FTIP. Bradley and his team delivered the $50 million FTIP projects
on time and on budget in 2009. In 2009, Bradley also led an IFRS system impact analysis to determine how the
new standards would impact Exelon Systems and its five (5) year rolling blue print. In 2009, Bradley’s team
implemented new SEC Reporting, Performance Indicator Reporting and Regulatory Tariff Reporting. During
Bradley’s years at Exelon, he has been able to accomplish these tasks by bringing in a diversified mixture of
contractors and employees to help augment and replace a staff with over 200 years of utility experience.
