Our leadership team

Michael Scoby

Founder

Read Bio

Michael founded American Digital Corporation (AD) in 1982, incorporated in 1984, to address the disparity that then existed between CPU capacity and storage in the medical field. This expanded to successfully supplying mid-range systems to many businesses nationally. In the 90s, the focus narrowed to supporting larger entities in their evolving infrastructure requirements and business-critical applications. AD’s focus on business-critical applications coupled with SAP’s growth as an ERP platform provided the foundation for Michael to hire resources and acquire companies to help support this area of strong growth for our company.

In 2016 AD formed a formal SAP practice that has had continuous growth and has completed more than 150 successful SAP migrations while achieving consistent customer satisfaction rating. The building of this practice has also led to exponential growth in AD’s Managed Services revenue and SAP Functional services. Michael’s investments over the past 40 years in critical technical and sales areas have led American Digital to be one of the top SAP partners in the US today.
