Managed the requirements for a new website/business application. This was a challenging task as the requirements changed frequently.

Bid Manager
Bid Manager for a large bid for a Telecom organization. I negotiated with the departments, obtained agreement on the services to be offered and at what price. I ensured timely delivery of the required information and presented the bid to the customer.
IT Architect
Vion Food was using Lotus Notes as their main communication tool the email traffic and the way the infrastructure was set up caused performance problems. Asked to write a change plan to implement a new structure for the servers and create a clear plan to professionalise the Notes team. I developed a plan including a new hub and bespoke architecture for the servers. This increased email traffic performance by 120%.
Business Analyst
Zeeman Textile wanted to improve the way they handled their laborious inventory taking procedure. I created a vision for the future and based a plan for the first step on this document. Using a SOA based architecture I designed a new application to do the annual stock control. Was also in charge of the team developing the PoC for the new inventory control system.
Tredin used a large Domino application for health and safety monitoring and a major conversion was planned. They did not have a functional acceptance test environment. Called in to advise on developing a testing environment and develop the needed procedures. After consulting with the entities involved I developed a plan to implement the test environment.
I also developed a structure for managing the manuals and documentation and designed an overall architecture to integrate most of the applications used.
A Telecom organisation wanted to use a call centre, based in Romania, to increase their marketing effectiveness. I was asked to develop ways to supervise the call centre remotely and manage the tasks for them. I developed a pragmatic solution to monitor tasks and manage the call-centre workers. I managed the team that did the first implementation of the application.
Tasks included guiding companies, ING and IBM among others, defining development goals, and manage teams to develop applications and the implementation process including employee induction.
One of the projects was managing a large change plan within ING Wholesale to outsource many of their applications. For ING Direct I developed an audit tracking application that also created periodic snapshots to conserve the current situation, now used globally. Also redesigned a forecasting tool that integrated with Excel which allowed all countries to enter their detailed forecasts and would calculate the results.
Role: Team Leader
A customer had a very complex application built with Lotus Domino which needed to be converted to a commercial product. I developed the new structure and defined the level of customization. Contract management and function creep were a large and challenging issue in this project.
Role: IT Architect
Activities: The government wanted to test the use of Internet for a national voting system modeled on the Dutch voting laws. Insuring the security and anonymity of the votes made this a challenging application to develop using bio-metrics and Java based local encryption.

Role: IT Architect

limited form of knowledge management. The system is modular, new functionality is easy to implement.
