books, journals, citations, news, drug data and specialty publications for the

professional medical community. In collaboration with the business, led team which

developed application code in support of new business features. Used both agile and

waterfall software development techniques in support of new feature development. Developed

and monitored the content workflows and provided 2nd tier application support.

Led team through outsourcing of selected software development and support services.

Selected and hired both onshore and offshore contracting staff. Developed and executed

knowledge transition on existing applications for maintenance support and transitioned in-

house staff to new development activities. Succeeded in transforming the team from an

internal to a decentralized mix of internal and outsourced staff while continuing to

provide excellent customer service.

Directed and supported application development in multiple IT environments. Managed

porting of applications while consolidating hosting facilities to achieve cost reduction,

improved performance and reliability.

Provided supply chain management by evaluating vendor and internal/external product

supplier changes to determine impact on content, processes, workflow and technologies used

to provide data to electronic publishing platforms.

Led successful total technical re-architecting initiative that put in place an entirely

new content processing architecture for books. Converted the existing book player which

used static HTML files converted from Standardized Generalized Markup Language (SGML) to a

dynamically rendered XHTML from XML documents. The initiative included conversion and

ingestion of 400 medical textbooks into the new repository over a span of six months.

Set direction on application development strategy/architecture, managed the

implementation and provided 24/7 operational support and monitoring for a $3M electronic

Identified and prioritized enhancement requests and defects to code and scripts based on

root cause analysis. Resulted in reassignment of all five editorial headcount to other

activities and reduced cycle time from an average of four days to less than 3 hours for a

journal issue. This also reduced the count of journal issues held up for reprocessing from

an average of ten per week to less than three per month.

architect and replace existing content management system (CMS) with a new CMS.
