Objective
Design and develop a new application and process in Maximo for clients for managing their assets outages and upgrade from their previous outage reporting tool.
•Project Description
Project involves building a new application for the client for managing outage reporting of their assets on their grounds. The clients decided to move from their existing outage reporting tool and use Maximo for the same functionality and for utilizing the billing capabilities in Maximo which come with the Service Provider add-on in Maximo. The project involved designing a completely new application and it was a great learning experience. It involved all things from Interfacing with other applications, application design and customization, automation script for adding the custom business logic, workflows and reports. This also involves interfacing with ArcGIS for getting asset information as the product also includes Spatial component which interfaces with ArcGIS which is used extensively by the client as being a energy and utilities company their assets are spread across a large area.

•Project Description
Client uses Maximo asset management as their primary asset management and maintenance solution and one of the most mature and developed Maximo systems with high level of data integrity and detail. They use several customized workflows and applications to help maintenance team, planners, schedulers and reliability engineers work efficiently and monitor critical assets. Many custom jobs are also executed for processing data and reports are generated. Customer also uses Maximo Anywhere and customizations are needed in applications as required to help staff complete their every day tasks quickly while being away from their desks. While working on the project I also got to develop several new applications from scratch to improve their process including one to display realtime dashboard on current maintenance activities and downtime status. The system also integrates with other government applications to share data.

Health information exchange
Client
Orion Health, A leading healthcare software development company based out of New Zealand
Language
Java
Frameworks
OSGI, Stripes
Tools
Eclipse, Tortoise SVN, Jira(defects tracking), Fisheye(source), Crucible(review)
Health Information Exchange is a product developed for Healthcare providers for managing Patient information in the form of CCD Documents. CCD, which stands for Continuity of Care, is an Healthcare HL7 standard that defines a data model and transmission format for summary clinical information for a patient. There are 19 distinct sections defined for a CCD including Allergies, Adverse Reactions, Alerts, Problems, Medications, Procedures, Encounters and more. With this standardized way of describing information, it can be shared electronically between health care systems participating in the HIE.
•Project Description
The HIE solution aimed at developing a Patient Health Information Exchange (HIE) System with main principle that complete, accurate and trusted patient information is presented to the clinicians. The features included receiving and generating CCD documents and storing them in a XDS compliant repository so that they can be viewed as a document tree. Extract information from CCD and then update and modify that subset of information from CCD. Display the information in the form of a Summary in an easy to understand format and allow physicians to subscribe to events and receive notifications for patients to stay up to date on specific patients’ health medical status.
The project was developed on OSGI Framework in Eclipse and used Services architecture for developing services for fulfilling various business requirements. It used other frameworks like EasyB for writing behavioral test cases and used Stripes for the front-end UI development.

Framework

Objective
Health portal project was aimed to developing a patient portal for small and medium healthcare providers to facilitate common processes like form filling, appointments scheduling, canceling, rescheduling, storing patient profile data, sending notifications to Providers and their Patients
•Project Description
The project was aimed at developing an integrated product for small and medium healthcare practices, to enable them to perform better on common tasks like preregistration, request appointments, managing payment of bills, make easy to use patient-practice messaging for asking non-urgent questions and fill forms before or post appointments like symptom assessment forms online thus saving paperwork for the practice and save time for patients at the same time. It involved creating two independent portals known as Port P (for providers) and Port C (for patients/customers). Both the portals worked independently and were integrated to exchange and synchronize data amongst each other. A patient could request appointment online and based on the availability doctor could confirm or postpone appointments and even send forms to patients which they could fill up before leaving their home online. It also included Bill Pay section for viewing and paying the bills after the appointments.
On technical aspects, the project made use of various, mostly open source technologies, standards and platforms. For the User Interface PHP was primarily used using CakePHP framework, making use of rich Ajax libraries like jQuery for Intuitive user experience, and for back-end and data handling Rest web services written in Java were used which made use of X-Query for communicating with XML database for storing and retrieving data. The project development followed agile methodology and the development was split into sprints lasting 3-4 weeks each.
•Roles and Responsibilities
As part of the Team I was mainly responsible for the front-end development and worked primarily on CakePHP framework. Worked on application development and worked on a complete module from start of design till the end by myself called the Admin Tool for managing data between the two portals, and configuration and Syncing data publishing using SOAP web service which I wrote entirely in PHP from scratch.
