Detailed experience follows...
modelled with a team, using BPwin, several portions of the existing supply and distribution system of DND. created a SED script to publish BPwin models on the web in HTML; created Excel spreadsheets to analyse source and destination of data within the model and defined techniques to identify modified objects and data.
Using IEW, analysed and designed a system to manage personnel and work orders for cleaning and meeting set-ups/takedowns. Evaluated against a commercial system.
Using DMR’s Productivity Plus (P+) methodology, analysed the Customer, Customer Request, Procedures, Workload, Workgroup and Help data facets. Designed the Customer Request and Workgroup functions, analysed issues surrounding postal codes, delivery points and address standardisation, and analysed use of workflow management procedures. used the Excelerator CASE tool for data and process modelling and Project Workbench for scheduling.
For an initial design, designed various subsystems of PSCS relating to time reporting and payment using Productivity Plus and the Excelerator CASE tool. specified PowerBuilder screens and interfaced with the Aion Development System artificial intelligence engine.
led the plan that prepared the strategy. The team examined the functions of the branch and recommended information technology projects and directions to meet technology, budgetary and PS-2000 challenges cost-effectively. The project used Excelerator and Developer, collecting information in Joint Application Design (JAD) sessions.
examined all existing Finance and Cash Management systems in Canada Post and planned their integration and replacement systems, using IEW.
examined all existing and planned systems supporting asset and material management in Canada Post, and designed a data architecture to support and integrate them and future systems.
managed the IA Environment Team (varying from two to four persons over two years) to refine, extend, and implement CPC’s metadata model. This metamodel was used in all the information architecture Business Area Analysis (BAA) projects. These BAAs detailed the functions of Canada Post and specified the systems to be constructed over the next ten years.
The team implemented the metamodel initially on IBM MVS using PSL/PSA as the repository and manipulation tool and GML-Script/VS for publishing and indexing. Later, IEW [ADW] and Ventura Publisher on the PC were used. The team wrote programs to assure completeness and correctness and to publish various documents based on the repository. This involved extensive dialogue with project manager and prime users to ensure relevance and clarity of the resulting analysis and design documents.
This group does all the data administration for all the national systems of the department. developed "System" and "Project" object profiles, integrating them into the existing Data Manager dictionary, and supporting them with reports and on-line interfaces using the ISPF Dialog Manager. enhanced the existing on-line dictionary interface with expanded context-sensitive help.
Created the data model of the existing ARMS system resolving ambiguities. Presented seminar to the systems maintenance staff in the uses of data modelling and the relevance of the ARMS data model to their work, and the opportunities and problems discovered. Used IEW, Data Manager.
Working in a team, specified the requirements for a new system administering the provincial grants to municipalities.
Working in a team, used HIPO, structure charts, and pseudo code to develop the administration system for workers’ claims.
Used COBOL, VSAM, and SAS to analyse inventory statistics and update microfiche support for NATO product listings and order numbers.
Used SPSS and Mark IV to support the management of persons in Ontario institutions.
Made and tested a variety of small changes to existing COBOL accounting and actuarial programs using COBOL and Easytrieve.
Assisted CTC to convert from COBOL to PL/1. Developed standards and guidelines for the use of PL/1. Programmed an on-line text editing system using Dialog Manager and PL:/1 for the creation of the auto part compatibility displays in CTC stores across Canada
