- Gentlemen – I would like to bring to your attention, help and support provided by Dhawal Kumar Patel from your team. We were facing a blocker issue, and the problem was very elusive. Other teams joined and very early on they ruled out all the usual suspects, and took a path of validating all the applicative software configurations. Dhawal from your team joined and started investigating the problem. We seldom share appreciation in regards to professionalism and diligence of our employees, and I think when the situation warrants, we should recognize and commend them on the superb job they did. My team was delighted to have Dhawal working on the issue, and as you can see he solved it and thanks to him PSE is on track with testing. Please share my appreciation with him. - Manager, Amdocs

- I have been working with Dhawal Patel over the last few months on the project and wanted to let you know that he has been so great to work with. He is very responsive and always willing to help find solutions around any problem or challenges we have faced throughout the project. I am going to miss working with him as I normally don’t work on projects and heard that he is going back to his regular responsibilities. I just wanted you to know what a great employee he is and a great partner to work with. I hope I have the pleasure to work with him again in the future
- "I know Dhawal from the days when I first met him in Amdocs, Pune in 2006 when I had come there from Amdocs, Cyprus to give On The Job training on Amdocs Clarify CRM. He is one of those people who stand out in the crowd and get noticed because of their sheer intelligence and thirst to learn new things. When I relocated back to India in the same year to join Amdocs Pune, I had the pleasure to have Dhawal in my team while working on the AT&T Development project. I soon realized that within these few months itself he had not only mastered his areas of work but had also become one of the key members of the team. This was a clear indication of his dedication, maturity, & ability to learn in a fast paced environment. The trait I like about him is that he has the amazing ability to visualize a problem or a requirement from a birds eye view as well as to the minutest detail. He is a logical person who really likes to think and never takes things for granted. This is the quality that not only brings out the best in him, but also helps others bring out the best in them when working with him. I will always appreciate the small and long discussions we had together during AT&T Release :). He is a person with huge potential and has all the right tools & attitude to cash on it. I would like to wish him good luck in future and hope our paths will cross again in future" - Technical Manager, Amdocs, India

I wish him all the best" - CIO, Reliance GlobalCom
