multiple tables.

UST GLOBAL (Continued)

Key Achievements:

. Designed a brand new process to collect the value of Wal-Mart

associates' benefit package for inclusion on 2012's W2 form. Data had

to be extracted from multiple DB2 tables including joins of these

tables. The data relationships on these tables required an extract

step to get the driver data for one of the programs, a joined cursor

to receive additional data about segment of the driver extract

population.

. Created a prototype for a Bentonville account Yammer social network

group. The idea was to provide a warm welcome to associates who are

new to the area by providing a place to access resources that are

needed when arriving in Bentonville.

INGRAM MICRO, WILLIAMSVILLE, NY

1995-2011

The world's largest technology distributor and a leading technology sales,

13, 000 employees.

TECHNICAL SPECIALIST

The Technical Specialist job title is multifunctional. As a Technical

Leader, wrote high level technical design, estimated project, supervised

coding changes, executed system test plan and prepared project for

implementation. In addition to technical leadership duties, functioned as

the Business Analyst by gathering customer requirements, documenting

current and future systems, writing business design, requirements and

system test plans. As an information technology subject matter expert for

a set of systems. Another function of the role was to act as a technical

expert in applications software. Lead team during international and

domestic large-scale implementations and small projects, including order

entry, product delivery, warehouse, freight, and tax regulation

applications. Insured overall stability and health of mainframe orders to

cash applications and external interfaces and reports. Project

documentation was created and maintained via Microsoft Office Suite (Word

templates, Excel, MS Project, Power Point and Visio) stored on Share Point.

Selected to communicate with groups throughout the organization, driving

excellence in technology initiatives while ensuring continued technology

growth to meet business needs. Communicated with offshore group and

internal teams. Provided outstanding customer support by reviewing and

responding to incident tickets, reviewing and approving change requests,

and serving as a backup for critical applications issues for management.

Consistently delivered a balance between business needs and regional group

needs while ensuring international system stability throughout North

America, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Europe. Designed and delivered

effective training materials and provided class presentations necessary for

support of legacy system during outsourcing initiatives. Ingram Micro used

a blend of technologies including on-line COBOL with CICS and batch COBOL,

DB2, IMS, VSAM and GDGs for data storage, MQ Series to push data and

transactions, Web services, FTP, batch JCL, EDI and Control-M for job

scheduling.

Key Achievements:

. Provided technical guidance and leadership during the reorganization

of the sales staff compensation project through the implementation of

the flexible method to assign sales teams with appropriate

compensation. Project earned corporate recognition and significantly

reduced required changes to mainframe and client/server systems. DB2

was used to display the sales organization for a specific customer on

the CICS system.

. Led the redesign of the direct entry order system, enabling the

organization to recover the costs of shipping orders directly from

vendors. This project used IMS with some DB2 for historical data

retention.

. Selected to drive standards, change control board, protected program

implementation committees and provide training for off-shore provider

personnel.

. Streamlined programming changes across all order entry methods by

envisioning, proposing and proving a radical structural design change

in the organization's EDI system. The original EDI data was stored on

VSAM but the new vision leveraged the relational flexibility of DB2.

. Reduced overall costs within mainframe storage and servers by

analyzing and removing unnecessary predecessor jobs for the batch

cycles. Efforts reduced the Canada batch cycle process by 60 minutes.

ingram micro (Continued)

. Key contributor to converting the freight operations within the German

warehouse to a new carrier selection model. The German business group

selected a new client server carrier selection tool. The order entry

system had to be modified to capture freight information about an

order if the order needed to be handled differently than the

enterprise, branch or customer's normal freight default settings. If

backordered, the enterprise, branch or customer's freight defaults had

to be added to the backorder. I worked with the German user group to

continually adapt to their changing requirements, documented changes,

updated test plans and directed the team of developers to deliver the

revisions to their order entry programs. This project was both IMS

and DB2 intensive. DB2 was used to house the information from order

entry to the German warehouse system. For backorders, it was

necessary to transfer the order entry information from the original

order to the backorder.

. Designed and delivered two new programs to provide interfacing between

the SAP inventory and the mainframe. Program linked the SAP sales

order to inventory purchase order on the mainframe, while reporting

errors between the two systems to ensure stability. These were batch

DB2 programs.
