Project:
Documentation - Dallas, TX

A bank client of QAT needed specialized documentation of system code. The Bank
client set the format of the document to be created. Each document would contain
a header section that had a general description, then more detailed sections that
correspond to business rules and other processes in the code. Details such as
Views, Attributes, Entities, etc. were documented for the system.
Responsibilities:
Documented system requirements for a bank information system based upon
the legacy code. Instead of doing construction based on requirements, used
Advantage Gen code to extract requirements from the code, diagrams and data
model.
Utilized the document format that was given to QAT by the client to
follow.
Technical Environment: Visual Studio, Advantage Gen and SharePoint.
Project:
EDD - California Sacramento, CA

State of California, very much like the state of Texas, has the responsibility
to administer help to unemployed within the state. The Unemployment Insurance
Scheduling System is a Mainframe based system used to schedule phone calls with
claimants for unemployment insurance. Field information system or FIS was used
as an internal system for divisions within the agency to keep track of budgets.
Advantage gen was chosen for both systems for system rewrites. The Field
information system was to be a one for one conversion, and the UISS system was
agreed to be a redesign including a requirements document.
Responsibilities:
Documented system requirements for Field Information System based upon
the legacy system. Had JAD sessions with the state agency employees to confirm
purpose of screens to be created using Advantage Gen 6.5.
Responsible for about half of the screens to be created in Gen.
Transformed legacy system by matching all requirements to new system
functionality.
Created light documentation to accompany the new Field Information
System.
Used JavaScript as well as Ajax basics. Ajax was used to create a nice
user interface to hold the advantage gen asp.net pages.
QAT WebDaptive was used to create the rich user interface for the
overall project. Each URL had a corresponding link on the Tree View for easy
user interaction.
Used QAT created Advantage Gen functions to share information from the
Gen code to the Ajax user interface. One such function passed both informational
and error messages to a message center.
Technical Environment: Advantage Gen, WebDaptive, SQL Server, and SharePoint.

Barrett Burke is an abbreviation for this five partner firm. The law office
handles thousands of foreclosures in the state of Texas. The law practice has a
location in the Dallas area and one in Houston. There are systems in place that
have to communicate information with banks. The legacy system is written in C
and that system is being rewritten as well as extended in the .net platform. The
new .net application has new functionality that is directed at saving the law
firm time in the processing of foreclosures. Different groups of employees
perform different functions; that was key in determining which users to schedule
for user acceptance testing of new application functionality.
Responsibilities:
Oversaw changes to Case Management System. Met with users when
necessary to understand what process the changes were to improve upon.
Teamed with another analyst to split requirements or alternate month
builds.
Tasked with selection of a UML type tool for the company. Selected a
rational type software package to help integrate the testing and design with
the coding of new system functionality.
o Purchased the initial five licenced copies of Enterprise Architect based upon
my cost benefit analysis. (procurement)
Reviewed the change, the use cases and potential test cases for each
monthly software change.
Worked closely with the DBA to ensure that we had all database changes
in place for releases.
Technical Environment: Visual Studio, Enterprise Architect(UML) and Oracle.

Senior Consultant
SPS Technologies provides IT solutions for both private businesses and
government sectors. This project was working with the state of Texas to
implement newly designed system functionality. The new system brought many
disparate systems together under one platform. Requirements were provided by the
Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TECQ) for the phases of development.
Responsibilities:
Managed each phase through the project lifecycle, documentation,
coding, testing and release.
o Extracted cases from design documents and created test plans for each diagram
that would fully test each use case.
o Developed and tested client server application.
o Tested the design and use cases before providing the client the completed
package.
Helped the main client representative with defect tracking and
resolution while doing system functionality reviews.
