In 1987, I started providing computer consulting services to many federal government agencies

and private industry, specializing in the architecture and development of complex business

i ntelligence applications, assessing and developing work flow and cost efficiencies through

software design, developing and implementing policies and procedures for software systems,

and providing system integration expertise. This experience produced software systems

critical to the success and productivity of my clients. Many of my projects have been recognized

w ith achievement and performance awards, reflecting the effort and diligence I put into my

A rchitected and developed the Justice Records Control Schedule (JRCS), a web-based

enterprise intranet application that supports the 43 business components and their

u nderlying offices within the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ).

The U.S. Government requires each office to maintain a schedule of the documents that are

generated each calendar year, each document is required to be “processed” per government

guidelines for retention and destruction policies. At the end of each calendar year, each

office is required by law to submit their records schedule to the National Archives.

The goal of JRCS is to provide Records Administrators the tools to maintain the library of

t he Record Series that have been authorized by the National Archives and to provide

Records Managers a tool for the creation and maintenance of their office File Plans.

The system was designed to comply with U.S. federal government and International

O rganization for Standardization (ISO) requirements for t ransparency and Section 508 of

t he Rehabilitation Act.

Visa, I nc. J uly 2007 – September 2010

Visa is a global payments technology company that enables consumers, businesses, financial

i nstitutions and governments to use digital currency instead of cash and checks.

Visa's Data Center Infrastructure and Critical Environments procured my services to

design, develop, and integrate the Int ranet Document Management System (DICE-IDMS) to

support their international data centers.

The goal of the IDMS is to provide VISA technicians a central library that is easily

accessible via hand-held devices, to insure that the maintenance procedures are performed

correctly using a step-by-step wizard methodology, which records auditing information. In

addition, the data center library needs to be compliant with International Organization for

S tandardization (ISO) in order to pass a yearly audit. IDMS was designed with the ability to

assign a review committee to each document, upon acceptance of the document, the system

would set a future review date so the document will undergo a review before being outdated

w ith the option to be modified or recertified. This critical mechanism ensures that any

document within the system will be current and up to date, meeting ISO requirements.

The solution was designed and developed to seamlessly integrate into the existing VISA IT

i nfrastructure - this requirement required constant communication with the Visa CIO's to

coordinate testing and certification to be installed on their intranet with other secured

services.

Technologies used in solution: V isual Studio 2008, C#, .NET Framework 3.5, ASP.NET,

JavaScript/jQuery/AJAX, XML, SharePoint 2007, and SQL Server 2008.

NASA - Goddard Space Flight Center July 2007 – September 2010

NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center's Delta Project and Advanced Manufacturing Branch

p rocured my services for the design, development and integration of managed software

systems.

Each system was designed to increase the efficiency of i t’s corresponding project by

i ntegrating industry-standard information technologies, creating more efficient and

p roductive business workflow. One of the primary goals in all of our systems is to

i ncorporate business intelligence dashboards that generate and analyze critical business

p rocesses in real-time.

The Delta Project

The Delta Project was one of NASA's most successful rocket programs. The Delta Project

h ired me to design and develop the Orbital Launch Services Project Management System

(OLS/PMS), which included the datastore design schema and the consumption of legacy data

f rom disparate data sources (mainframes, micro-computers, PC-based databases, and file

systems). The OLS/PMS not only managed the critical day-to-day requirements and

responsibilities within the project, but also closely monitored pending rocket launches for

components within each rocket that may have malfunctioned in current launches, providing

engineers time to test, fix and/or replace the component or adjust the launch date to insure

m ission success.

Advanced Manufacturing Branch

NASA’s Advanced Manufacturing Branch (AMB), is the group within NASA responsible for

t he manufacturing of parts and components that support all the space shuttle missions.

Since 2004, I designed, developed, and integrated a procurement and acquisition system that

Page 7

John M. Kennedy

not only managed the AMB group, but also the 100+ vendors that are used in support of

A MB. The system was designed to provide real-time analysis of any job (on-site or off-site), to

comply with the government’s Federal Acquisition Regulations (FARs) for vendor jobs, to

assess and score a vendor’s ability to deliver quality products on time, and to provide AMB

management analysis tools that are f lexible, powerful and easy to use to generate

performance analysis reports.

The system was designed to comply with U.S. federal government and International

O rganization for Standardization (ISO) requirements for t ransparency.

Technologies used in solution: V isual Studio 2005-2008, C#, .NET Framework 3.0-3.5,

ASP.NET, JavaScript/jQuery/AJAX, XML, SharePoint 2007, Oracle, SAP, and SQL Server

2005-2008.

National I nstitutes of Health (N I H) A ugust 2005 – October 2007

Architected and developed the Intramural Research Program (IRP) for the N I H Medical

Records department. IRP’s are the research protocols that researchers across the country

submit to N I H requesting such things as funding, facilities, and patient populations. N I H

reviews these requests by passing a file folder to a committee of reviewers. Each reviewer in

t he committee is given time to review and comment on the request before returning the file

folder. This process could take up to 3 years and during this period the submitting

researcher has no knowledge of the status of his/her file. Designing and developing the IRP

required an absolute in-depth knowledge of the IRP lifecycle and the review processes that

a ffect an IRP. Our design would incorporate the use of industry-standard information

technologies to completely t ransform this paper-based process to a web-based system. This

robust new system not only provided researchers with the ability to t rack their IRP status

t hrough the internet but also gave the N I H approval commit tees an intranet-based solution

t hat would provide reviewers workgroup collaboration, document management functions for

checking documents “in” and “out”, and a “reviewer’s notes” capability.

U pon it’s release, the number of calls from researchers to the medical records department

requesting the status of IRPs dropped significantly and the lengthy review processes has

been reduced by 50%.
