3. Project: IntelliJapan Refactoring. Dec ’07 - May ’08

Role: Senior Associate – Software

Project Description: IntelliJAPAN is a claim processing web site hosted by Asurion specifically for Japan customers. Asurion is insurance company that provides insurance service for mobile phones. Refactoring project is basically intended to improve web site performance and scalability through change in system architecture. Asurion has a messaging system in place called middle tier which is based on SOA (service oriented architecture), so IntelliJAPAN web site will be using this messaging system to improve its overall performance and scalability.

4. Project: Unkit. Apr ’06 - Nov ’07

Role: Senior Associate – Software

Project Description: Asurion’s Intelliset application is used by CSR (Customer Service Representatives) for filing the insurance claims. Asurion sends out fully kitted phones (battery, battery cover, home charger, manual etc) for 100% of shipments and sends additional accessories (accessories not included in the pretty box or OEM box, e.g. cigarette lighter adapter, belt clips and leather cases) for 10-20% of shipments.

This results in higher costs per shipment than are necessary. Unkitting project is to send subscribers only the accessories needed to appropriately satisfy their claim based on peril sub-type, whether we are sending a like-for-like replacement, and whether they explicitly claim additional accessories. This means that LFL shipments for damage/malfunction claims will not receive home chargers unless a home charger is specifically claimed by the subscriber. Also the battery will not be included in the shipment for damaged/malfunction claims unless there was liquid damage to the unit or the battery was specifically mentioned by the subscriber as claimed equipment. Scripting will be added to Intelliset to correctly set customer expectations of what they will receive in their shipment. Battery covers, styli, dongles, and manuals will all be considered part of the transceiver and will not be treated as separate accessories. These components will be sent with the transceiver regardless of peril sub-type or like-for-like. After the customer has been informed of what components they can expect to receive in their fulfillment, they will be given the opportunity to add additional accessories to fully satisfy their claim.

The unkitting project will be scaleable. The COP driven logic will give us the ability to add and remove carriers from the unkitting project
