I am also available for independent contracts and projects. The standard development model for new projects is Design, Build, Operate, to which a good systems environment must add Maintain.
In my years of experience, I have performed in all four roles. The biggest problem I've found with this model in many organizations try to separate these roles out in the name of "efficiency", creating specialized teams to perform each role. The problem here is that your Design team must communicate with your Operate team, and vice versa, or the project can fall apart because the needs of the operators are not met in the design phase, or the build team doesn't know what the design team intended, or...
That's where I come in.
I can work on a project from start to finish, leading or assisting in the design phase to create the best use of resources and components. Building the environment out in the best possible realization of the design goal. Balancing the needs of the project and the expectations of the operators for a smooth transition from concept to reality, as well as creating the processes and procedures required for a smooth maintenance operation.
For smaller organizations, I can work with you to create a custom environment to meet your needs. From a small, secure environment for a home or small office to a multi-server clustered e-commerce web presence, each project demands the same amount of care and expertise. Internet site creation, secure access from your home or business, systems management, repair and upgrades - if you need it, I can help you realize it.
