MARK A. WOLVEN

With 25+ years of professional experience, I am a highly capable Project Manager, Lead Data

OBJECTIVE

Management/Migration Consultant, and Data Analyst. I can analyze requirements, lead teams,

and communicate effectively with both clients and coworkers. My value to a client lies in my

ability to understand complex requirement issues while remaining engaged with the task at a

technical level, and thus ensuring that delivery meets client expectations.

The management of data is a recurring theme throughout my career and emerges in diverse

forms such as data sourcing, cleansing, migration, and transformation.

ACHIEVEM

Lead Business Analyst

ENTS

1. Data Migration Project Lead – this effort requires management of a third party software

upgrade on top of upgrades to Oracle and Windows Server. Manage development of

custom applications. Create a repeatable process for rollout in multiple locations.

Booz Allen Hamilton, McLean, VA, June 2003 – July 2014

Senior Business Systems Analyst

2. Data Migration Lead – this effort requires the migration of data from several disparate

systems into a single web based system to manage DoD Civilian Position and

Manpower data. Data extracts from the source system are created, mapped, cleansed,

and harmonized using Microsoft Excel before it is loaded into the manpower system.

After the data is loaded, it is validated that the data was loaded correctly.

3. Lead Test Tool Developer - this effort required that a test tool (Microsoft Access) be

developed for each of 9 unique data sets to inspect the quality of the data for the

uploading process for an application under development. The process examined these

data sets and a set of tools was created to facilitate the work. Ultimately, each data set

was accompanied by its own reports and documentation.

4. Managed the revision process of the Core Human Resource Information Standards for

the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness (OUSD

(P&R).

5. Solely responsible for all Army (Defense Integrated Military Human Resource System)

DIMHRS Data Mapping related information and tasks. This includes multiple source

and target databases, databases containing functional requirements, and conversion of

non-automated outputs from other offices to more useful tools.

6. Created a combined Legacy Data Mapping database that users employed to map

Legacy Data Elements to DIMHRS Attributes and Information Requirements.

Performed administrative changes to the database as necessary to respond to user

requirements.

7. Designed and generated performance metrics from the DIMHRS mapping databases;

used SQL to extract datasets and created dashboards to display this information.

8. Authored papers related to DIMHRS Data Mapping

Logistics Management Institute, McLean, VA, November 2001 – April

2003

Research Fellow

1. Developed an interactive, automated cost model that was distributed to potential

bidders to assist in development of cost proposals for a major (>$100M) request for

proposals for the Defense Commissary Agency.

1. Prepared and conducted briefings to EPA employees on Section 508 (Federal

Accessibility Standards for Electronic and Information Technology).

Science Applications International, Inc., McLean, VA, 1994 – 2001

Analyst

2.

Developed a series of computer simulations for major commercial cargo facilities at

ports of entry along the Southwest border, several major seaports, and the busiest

commercial cargo facility on the Northern border. The models assessed the effects of

inspection technologies and contemplated policy or operational changes on daily

activities of the port.

3. Determined data requirements for model development and designed and implemented

the data collection processes.

4. Developed a process simulation model capable of conducting risk analysis: to identify

optimal throughput rates under varying process conditions, to minimize process

downtime, and to mitigate process perturbations. This process simulation model

provided a graphical illustration of the neutralization-based chemical demilitarization

process in conjunction with quantitative analysis to identify system bottlenecks and

system redundancy requirements. This work was performed for the U.S. Army at the

Aberdeen Proving Grounds.
