January 1994 to October 1997
Concord / Chicago

CONSULTANT

PROGRAMMER / ANALYST @ Emerson Electric

  • Redeveloped three human resources database applications. Two were originally created in DB IV for the MS-DOS platform. The third was an extension of a FoxPro 3.0 Equal Employment Opportunity application used by the U.S. Government to maintain and assure that companies are meeting their EEO requirements by listing the number of employees working in different job categories by race and gender.
  • MBA application – The core functionality tracked a potential new employee s progress through Emerson s human resources department interview and evaluation process. All candidates were categorized as to their skills, assessments made during successive interviews, their availability, and the actions taken by Emerson during the recruiting process. Reports were generated based on these categories.
  • Tasks included importing the old data files into a new MS Access95 database, defining table relationships and queries necessary for the applications user interface to be effective. Enhancements included a synchronized list of available job candidates whose record with Emerson s human resources department could be selected for editing or review. Attributes used to distinguish between the categories were outdated and needed to be changed without destroying the integrity of the data. Since each record had to be evaluated and updated to the new attribute by someone in the human resources department changes had to be made to each record on-line. Reports could be selected by the old attribute as long as they existed and the new attribute until all of the records were updated, as well as by a combination of new and old attributes.
  • Nameplate Application – The core functionality maintained a database of Emerson s executive employees around the world, their length of tenure, number of job assignments foreign and domestic and the classification of their job within the corporation. The application could also generate a printed graphic of how their desktop nameplate would appear.
  • EEO-1 – Analyzed, designed and coded an enhanced version of the EEO-1 application using MS Access 95 to duplicate and enhance the U.S. Governments version which is sent to Emerson yearly on floppy disk, completed by Emerson s human resources department and returned to the government in a timely manner. The EEO-1 application was designed to import the data table sent to the government, review the data and group the data in a way more consistent with the corporate structure and geographic location of Emerson s individual companies. The application also maintained data longer than one year for more thorough analysis.
  • Tasks included developing a user interface for selecting data tables to be imported and transforming the raw data into records that would meet Emerson s extended requirements. Those requirements included totals by Business Leader, Company, State or Corporation where the govt. only considered individual companies . This mandated creating a Corporate / Business Leader / Company hierarchical structure which could be edited, recreated, and maintained in separate tables for different years or adhoc analysis.

SENIOR PROGRAMMER ANALYST @ Dimac Direct

  • Designed, coded and implemented Multidimensional Data Analysis [MDA] tools using Visual Basic and MS Office to provide all of the data access objects necessary to view, store, and analyze the information needed for maintaining a yearly budget by the accounting department.

  • Provide a means of managing information related to technical service request calls by integrating an MS Mail enabled application written in Visual Basic 3.0 to route help desk requests with an MS Access database. Each request included the data found in the AUTOEXEC.BAT, WIN.INI , and SYSTEM.INI of the workstation requesting help. The database was also designed with MS Mail processing capabilities to log each help desk request, assign the task to an available representative, and track the resources used to maintain the request.
  • Mentored and recommended Visual Basic coding techniques that was to be used to re-design, debug and improve a client/server Electronic Catalog for the Customer Service department. These recommendations were aimed at de-normalizing the data contained in the Access 2.0 database , delivering timely record processing and visual display of large records, and greatly reducing the amount of system resources needed by each workstation to effectively use the application.

PROGRAMMER / ANALYST @ Software Studios

Worked as part of a team implementing and debugging modules of an Image Processing Application written in VB 3.0 and used for viewing and annotating large batches of scanned documents. All of the documents were sorted and stored on file servers according to classifications that were bar-coded into the document.

Thereby improving workstation performance by reducing the number of calls from the workstation to the server necessary to maintain the workstations view of the data.

PROGRAMMER / ANALYST @ Open Systems Group

  • Part of a team designing and testing a prototype utility used for managing large integrated relational database systems. The application was coded using VB 3.0 and relied on ODBC connectivity to encompass data access from a wide range of database objects.

  • Part of a team designing and testing a prototype Web-Site for a large St.Louis based electrical contractor. Combining HTML with Microsoft Word 6.0 custom document templates produced a method for re-creating the standard business documents already on file servers into WEB compliant documents that could be viewed with standard browsers.
  • Designed and documented a server based installation for 500 Windows 95 workstations being implemented at 35 distribution sites. The Windows 95 setup was run from a custom script based on the MSBATCH.INF format. The setup was initialized from a Network Bootable Floppy Disk on computers with formatted hard drives and no operating system installed. MS-DOS 6.22, Windows 95 and Microsoft Office 95 software were all installed and configured from the Windows NT server. WINS and DHCP were the mechanisms used to establish the IP addresses needed for TCP/IP network protocol.

PROGRAMMER / ANALYST @ J.C. Penney Catalog Center

Created a customer service GUI using Visual Basic 3.0 and Microsoft Access. The interface was modeled from an IBM Mainframe terminal emulation application that was already in place and was used to define the specifications for a PC based customer service department. The application centered on the need for transaction processing and data replication that would meet the heavy demands of J.C. Penney. The migration to PC s was dedicated to providing greater capability to each customer service representative who would then have immediate access to more data than the mainframe alone could profitably provide.

PROGRAMMER / ANALYST – INDEPENDENT CONSULTING

Wrote interactive software programs for small business contractors and owner operators in the trucking industry. Using VB 3.0, Access and the Microsoft Office Developers Kit I customized Microsoft Workgroup Templates and Designer E-Forms to compliment software programs that were already in place at small businesses in the Chicago area. Most of the interactive software centered on timeslips for employees, work schedules and advance planning for job estimates and personal organizers for administrative tasks. OLE automation and DDE were used when applicable.
