11/2010 – 01/2014; Vice President, Simtec Global, LLC, Arlington, VA
Mr. Nagle led Simtec’s efforts as a subcontractor to History Associates Inc. (HAI) supporting the development of a DOD-IT compliant SQL ‘hardened’ database for the National Military Medical Museum located at Walter Reed Medical Center in Bethesda, MD. Additionally, Mr. Nagle provided the management of the technical solution for the asset cataloging. The museum assets were in four disparate locations that could not be networked and therefore Mr. Nagle was responsible for the implementation of 4 standalone networks of the asset tracking system and ensuring that the data from these disparate locations were synchronized. Each network was independently located at each required museum site. The standalone network utilized wireless communications linking bar code scanners and laptop computers that were required for the data entry of the assets. Bar code scanners would be synchronized with the asset tracking system and the information uploaded transferring data to the independent SQL database at each of the three sites. Each instance of the database was loaded onto a ‘hardened’ portable hard drive and transported to and synchronized with the entire asset tracking data. The updated database would be loaded back onto the portable hard drive and then loaded onto each site’s server and the process would begin again. The implantation required a phased roll out of each asset tracking system as each location became available. Mr. Nagle developed a move plan for each museum location. During this effort, Mr. Nagle provided status updates to HAI and interfaced directly with senior level staff as well as providing oversight to the Simtec staff. Mr. Nagle provided invoicing, profit and loss calculations, and all hiring.
