I’m currently leading one of most strategic analytics projects in the organization to monitor the overall progress of the corporate Operation Excellence.

In addition, this solution will enable management and Information Security Analysts to identify areas of concerns and take proper corrective actions.

Energy Efficiency Dashboard (2013-2015), Project Manager:
I managed this project throughout the full development lifecycle including the development of the feasibility study document.
